Tottenham Hotspur have been scouting Valencia loanee Geoffrey Kondogbia, report SkySports.

Kondogbia is on loan at Valencia from Inter Milan, and Spurs are long term admirers of the Frenchman.

Tottenham’s interest has reportedly been awoken by their desire to replace midfielder Mousa Dembele, who has struggled with injury this season.

After two seasons at Monaco he switched to Inter Milan, but a disappointing 2016/17 saw him made available for loan.
