In search of a new centre-back as they prepare to let Jan Vertonghen run down his contract at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Spurs seem to be aiming for someone young.

We’ve had a number of reports suggesting so, with names such as Mohamed Simakan touted as the ideal way forward, allowing Davinson Sánchez and Toby Alderweireld to play regularly while developing someone behind them.

A new name to throw into the mix now is that of Axel Disasi, whom RMC Sport believe is on Tottenham’s wishlist for the upcoming summer.

The club join Arsenal and Southampton in the race to acquire the Stade de Reims centre-back, who would be available for €15m (before bonuses).

That’s the price the Ligue 1 side have placed on their starlet, and all offers they have received so far have yet to meet that request.

RMC Sport believe clubs, however, could bide their time in hope Reims eventually lower their demands.

A move to England is described as a ‘serious option’ for the 22-year-old, but that doesn’t mean he will go there, as the French outlet explain teams from Spain, like Sevilla, and Germany are also circling.
