With Toby Alderweireld looking towards the exit door at Tottenham after talks over new contract hit a roadblock, Spurs are already being linked with a move for a possible replacement.
Mauricio Pochettino is said to have identified the Bayer Leverkusen ace Jonathan Tah as Alderweireld alternative.
Tottenham are said to have watched the German defender in action on several occasions this season already and the Mirror reports that Spurs are ready to pounce to the player who’s been making plenty of headlines in Germany thanks to his impressive performances this season.
The 22-year-old has been going from strength to strength ever since his switch from Hamburg and even made a Germany debut under Joachim Loew.
Bayer Leverkusen value their defender at £35 million.
Tah made 22 Bundesliga appearances this season for Bayer Leverkusen, helping his team join the top-four battle in Germany.
