Any outside hopes of Tottenham fans seeing Edin Dzeko arrive at White Hart Lane look to be over.

Wolfsburg are keen to hold onto the forward, who was the top scorer in the Bundesliga last season which has helped to inflate his valuation to a massive €40 million.

Spurs fans are eager for Harry Redknapp to land a top class centre forward ahead of the new season to bolster any chances of a successful Champions League campaign.  At present, it looks like Craig Bellamy is on the top of Redknapp’s radar – and even Harry is unsure of a deal can be done for the Welshman.

Italian giants Juventus pulled out of the race for Dzeko earlier today.

“Dzeko? We like him, but Wolfsburg won’t sell, and so the discussion is now closed,” Juve general manager Giuseppe Marotta told Corriere dello Sport.
