Monaco defender Aymen Abdennour has become the latest name to be linked with a move to Tottenham in the summer after he helped down their bitter rivals Arsenal last night.
The Tunisia international produced an outstanding battling display to keep Arsenal’s forward line at bay, and help guide the French side to a shock 3-1 victory over the Gunners at the Emirates.
According to the Mirror, his performance did not go unnoticed by Pochettino, who has now been linked with a £5m swoop for the 25-year-old at the end of the season.
Abdennour has confirmed that there is interest from Spurs to take him to White Hart Lane this summer, and he will likely consider a move considering he has struggled to cement his place in the Monaco first-team this season.
He said: "Yes, I am aware of it (the interest). But I am at Monaco and I am concentrating on my club."
The centre-back has made just nine appearances in the league for Leonardo Jardim’s side this term, and with Spurs desperately searching for a number of defensive options to bolster their lack of cover at the back, a move to north London could well happen.
