Tottenham Hotspur are one of a number of clubs across the continent eyeing Nigerian youngster Chikezie Miracle Nwaorisa, according to Calciomercato.

The talented young midfielder is hardly a household name due to the fact he plays for Spartaks Virsliga, who are currently ninth in the Latvian top flight. But that does not mean Nwaorisa, who has scored once in three games this season, has gone unnoticed.

Calciomeracto claim that Tottenham are interested in taking a punt on the Nigerian, who is expected to represent his country in the upcoming U20 World Cup in Poland.

La Liga outfit Villarreal and Dinamo Zagreb are also interested with Spartaks apparently valuing their prized asset at around £1.3 million.

Sampdoria, who are always in the market for young talent they can buy low and potentially sell for big profits, are also running the rule over one of Africa’s most exciting starlets.

If Nwaorisa choses Spurs over Croatia, Spain and Italy, he could expect to start off with the U23s. But, in Mauricio Pochettino, the North London giants have a manager who turned Harry Kane, Dele Alli and co into world renowned footballers.
