The Chelsea player’s impressive displays for loan club Newcastle United are said to have piqued Tottenham Hotspur’s attention.
Tottenham Hotspur are ‘understood to be keeping a close eye’ on Kenedy’s performances for Newcastle United, according to the Northern Echo.
Kenedy has impressed since his January loan to Newcastle from Chelsea – scoring two goals and creating as many in his eight Magpies outings.
Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-German are among the clubs already credited with interest in the Brazilian – who has a £6.3 million market value, according to Transfermarkt – with Tottenham seemingly adding to his list of admirers.
It has been speculated that Spurs could sell left-back Danny Rose in the summer transfer window, while the unimpressive Georges-Kevin Nkoudou is Mauricio Pochettino’s only left wing option heading into next season.
And Kenedy’s ability to play both roles comfortably would be a major plus for the Argentine manager.
The problem Tottenham are likely to face however is convincing Chelsea to sell to a team that must now be considered among their main rivals, especially with Kenedy’s contract having another two years left to run.
Should Tottenham make a move for the on-loan Newcastle star?
