Benoit Assou-Ekotto is closer to Juventus. The Tottenham player from Cameroon, 26, could arrive in Turin in June. This is according to rumours that also say Tottenham have already found his substitute, the left side defender of Everton, Leighton Baines, 26. Juventus offered 8 million pounds for Benoit Assou-Ekotto, the same price that Tottenham will pay for Baines.
