Jarrod Bowen has nine goals in his last eight Championship games, suggesting that a Premier League chance could be on the cards with Spurs.

Hull City have made it clear that they have no desire to sell Jarrod Bowen during the January transfer window.

But that is not putting Premier League clubs off. According to The Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace, Leicester City and Burnley all sent scouts to watch Bowen in action against Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend.

The 22-year-old certainly seized his chance to impress, scoring twice in a 3-0 win. In total, Bowen has netted 13 Championship goals this season, including nine in his last eight games.

And The Mirror adds that Tottenham are now planning to make a £12 million opening bid in the hope that Hull would be willing to let their prized asset make the switch to Wembley midway through the season.

Bowen, the Championship’s Player of the Month for December, would fit the bill for a Spurs side chock-full of young homegrown talent. And Mauricio Pochettino might be hoping that he could make a similar impact to Dele Alli, who has shone in North London since arriving from MK Dons in 2015.

Sky Sports claim that Hull value Bowen at £20 million, however, suggesting that a £12 million bid is doomed to fail.
