A number of Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to Twitter to have their say on the L’Equipe report claiming Spurs have made preliminary enquiries for Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana.

The report, as translated by Get French Football News, says Tottenham are still interested in the 24-year-old and have “already made moves in his direction”, along with Premier League rivals Chelsea.

The Daily Mail claimed back in February that Onana had reportedly set his sights on a move to the Premier League this summer, with Spurs and Chelsea seemingly his preferred destinations.

However, the Cameroon international is now reportedly most interested in a move to Paris Saint-Germain – “privately, he has told those close to him that he would be delighted to play in France and that PSG have an attractive project”, writes GFFN.

That’s not to say he is only interested in PSG – he seemingly “has identified a host of clubs in Spain, England and Germany where he could see himself at” as well as the Ligue 1 side.

In addition, Onana will reportedly be allowed to leave Ajax this summer by Director General Edwin van der Sar and Sporting Director Marc Overmars, with the Dutch giants looking for a fee in the €30million (around £26million) region.

Onana has gone from strength to strength at Ajax since his arrival from Barca’s academy in 2015, becoming the Amsterdam giants’ number one and conceding less than a goal a game at senior level.

He is tall, agile, quick off his line, boasts great ability in starting attacks and solid command of his area – indeed, he was highly praised by Manuel Neuer last summer, the German icon saying he was Onana’s “biggest fan” (Goal.com).

But what are Tottenham fans making of the speculation? Here is some of the reaction on social media:
