Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Hoffenheim defender Jeremy Toljan, after Kyle Walker’s departure.

According to the Daily Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur will have to pay £7 million for Jeremy Toljan, if they want to sign him from Hoffenheim.

Reports in Germany in Bild initially suggested that Spurs hoped to snap up the young full-back for just £3 million.

However, Tottenham are set to have to pay more than that for the defender, who is believed to be on Mauricio Pochettino’s list of targets.

Whether Spurs will be willing to pay £7 million remains to be seen, but there may be some pressure on Daniel Levy to get a deal for Toljan over the line.

Tottenham fans have started to grow frustrated with their inactivity so far this summer.

Spurs are the only side in the Premier League who are yet to make a signing in the transfer window to date.

Toljan is regarded as a bright prospect for the future, and would strengthen Spurs’ options at right-back.

Kyle Walker left Tottenham to join Manchester City earlier this month, which could leave Pochettino wanting more cover on the right hand side of his defence.
