Tottenham Hotspur are one of the teams who have preferred to stay away from the glitz and glamour of the transfer market and have not made any signings so far this summer. However, they have eyed a number of players for the next term, who can come into the side to strengthen the core.
The Spurs have already lost one of their mainstays in the backline in the form of Kyle Walker, with the right back signing for fellow Premier League club Manchester City. The man in charge of the Spurs, Mauricio Pochettino, is well aware that he will be needing someone as good as the English international to play at the aforementioned position and has got his eyes on the Ivory Coast right back Serge Aurier, currently playing for the Ligue 1 club Paris Saint Germain.
The 24-year-old has been one of the most highly regarded players in modern day football and has attracted the interests of a number of clubs from all around Europe, who want him to be a part of their team for the next term. He has been an integral part of the former French Ligue champions and has played a pivotal role in safeguarding their defence since his arrival in 2015.
The Ivory Coast international, however, has not been in the good books of the current PSG coach Unai Emery owing to his off-the-field antics and has been regularly clashing with the ex-Sevilla manager, which has led him to be kept out of the team towards the end of the last season, with Emery opting to go with Belgian full back Thomas Meunier to play in his place in the first team.
This has reportedly made the 24-year-old right back unsure about his future and he might be looking to leave Parc des Princes in the forthcoming season. The North London outfit is keeping a keen eye on the development regarding the situation surrounding the right back and his club and might look to take advantage of it to bag him for the next term.
Paris Saint Germain have signed the Brazilian veteran Dani Alves from the Italian champion side Juventus this summer, which might push the Ivory Coast international further down the pecking order in the team. In this situation, it might be the perfect option for Aurier to head towards the Premier League club Tottenham, who are in dire need of a top class right back, in the summer transfer window.
