Keeper Stipe Pletikosa set for Tottenham move

Tottenham are set to boost their goalkeeping options with the capture of Stipe Pletikosa on loan.

Croatia international Pletikosa will join the north London club on a season-long loan following a successful trial.

Harry Redknapp confirmed the move following Wednesday's 4-0 Champions League victory over Young Boys at White Hart Lane.

During the second leg of their European play-off, Redknapp saw first-choice keeper Heurelho Gomes pick up an injury which required Carlo Cudicini to enter the fray at half-time.

Cudicini himself had not featured since last November after being involved in a motorcycle accident which threatened to end his career.

Meanwhile, Redknapp has played down suggestions that qualification for the lucrative group stages of the Champions League will lead to a late flurry in the transfer market.
