Trio of talent

Tottenham are keeping tabs on three young English talents in the Championship. According to Football.London, Spurs still need to bring in homegrown talent as they are lacking in that area of their current squad.

The report suggests that Jarrod Bowen, Jack Clarke and Max Aarons of Hull City, Leeds United and Norwich City are all on the club’s scouting list.

All three are currently hoping to lead their respective sides to promotion so no deals are likely in January. But Tottenham will no doubt keep tracking their progress.

La Liga midfielder

The London Evening Standard reports that Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino is looking at La Liga for a potential midfield recruit. With Mousa Dembele leaving and Victor Wanyama struggling with injury a new central midfielder is reportedly being targeted.

The report does not mention who the player is but Tottenham have been linked with several La Liga players in the past, including Barcelona talent Riqui Puig.

Janssen asking price

Tottenham are still playing hardball over the future of Vincent Janssen. De Telegraaf report, as relayed by Sport Witness, that Daniel Levy will not allow the player to go on the cheap.

He wants a fee as close as possible to €20 million (£17.8 million) for the player as he aims to recoup the fee he paid AZ Alkmaar for the Dutch international.
