Last month, we relayed news from Italy that AC Milan must watch out for Tottenham Hotspur in the race for Feyenoord star Santiago Giménez.

TV Play now state there are several clubs chasing the 22-year-old and Tottenham are also included in the list.

On Wednesday, the striker scored a brace in his side’s Champions League victory over Lazio.

The Serie A side had looked at the player in the summer and the report claims it would be difficult for them to sign him in the upcoming windows because of the growing competition.

Giménez has 15 goals and three assists from 11 games and if he were to extend this run until the end of this season, Feyenoord could request €45-50m and this would be beyond the reach of Italian clubs.

Therefore, TV Play explain the Premier League will be his next destination where he has received ‘great interest’ from Tottenham.

It’s claimed Ange Postecoglou’s side are following the player with ‘great attention’ and are ‘willing to accommodate’ him in their squad.

Tottenham’s interest in the Mexico international is also reported by Calciomercato, who add that his price tag will have soared to €40-50m following his brace against Lazio.

Back in August, the striker’s agent had confirmed Spurs showed interest in his client in the last window.
