Figo on a free

[gazzafox9]

LUIS FIGO is desperate to finish his career with Tottenham Hotspur, according to The People newspaper.

The veteran midfielder still has a year to run on his existing deal at Inter Milan but is allowed to talk to other clubs. The 34-year-old's agents have been in contact with Spurs officials over the past 24 hours to discuss a possible free transfer.

Figo has always wanted to play in England and although Bolton and Newcastle are interested, he only wants to play for Tottenham Hotspur.

The Portuguese international is looking for a two-year deal worth around £60,000 a week. He was set for a move to Saudi side Al-Ittihad, where he would have had a £6million contact but the deal fell through at the last minute.

A friend of Figo said last night: "Luis has always had a soft spot for Spurs and would love to live in London. He has seen other stars go to the capital and settle with their families."

Figo said: "The door is open in Milan again and I am very grateful.
"I could stay for one more season, but there are other opportunities. I could even retire."
