Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti is on Tottenham’s radar.
Sport says Spurs chief Fabio Paratici is considering a move for Umtiti, 27, after missing out on Villarreal defender Pau Torres.
The Villarreal ace, 24, is believed to have rejected the chance to ply his trade in North London after Tottenham agreed a fee with his employers.
Torres reportedly wants to play in the Champions League, an experience Villarreal can offer him this term after winning the Europa League.
Tottenham are thought to want another centre-back this summer to partner new signing Cristian Romero, signed from Atalanta for £47million.
If Paratici decides to pursue Umtiti, he may be able to get him on the cheap as Barcelona are seemingly desperate to get him off their books. (Tribal Football)
