Tottenham have reportedly cast their eye over Blackburn Rovers playmaker Bradley Dack and he would tick tons of boxes for manager Mauricio Pochettino.

According to the Evening Standard, Spurs are expected to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window and have been monitoring the 24-year-old.

Dack has taken the Championship by storm this campaign so far in his first year in England’s second tier, as he’s done the hard yards in the lower divisions.

The attacking midfielder has made 10 appearances across all competitions this season, scoring eight goals and supplying five assists in return.

Spurs have experienced before first-hand with Dele Alli that players can come from the lower divisions to make an impact in the Premier League and many feel the Blackburn sensation is on a similar path.

Dack would give Spurs an extra attacking option if he made the move to North London in January and the team could do with an additional player.

Pochettino has a great track record of developing and improving English players, something that the likes of Alli, Harry Kane, Eric Dier, Kieran Trippier and Harry Winks have all experienced.

It would certainly be a gamble for Spurs to sign a player with practically no top level experience, but his immense work-rate and performances in the last 12 months suggest he could be worth the risk.
