Geoffrey Kondogbia remains on Tottenham Hotspur’s radar as they search for a long-term replacement for Mousa Dembele, reports Sky Sports.

Kondogbia is one of four central midfielders Spurs are considering, along with Lille’s Yves Bissouma, Abdoulaye Doucoure of Watford and Red Bull Salzburg star Amadou Haidara.

This is despite the fact that the France international has been linked with a permanent switch to Valencia by Italian publication CalcioMercato.

Kondogbia has spent the past season on loan at the Mestalla Stadium, playing 36 matches in all competitions and impressing, and it was believed that his brother and agent, Evans, had met with representatives from Los Che to discuss a permanent move to the Spanish club.

As yet though, there has been no confirmation that the deal has been completed and until there is it seems the 25-year-old will remain a Tottenham target.

Signing a new central midfielder remains a priority for the North London club, with the future of Dembele uncertain and the Belgian linked with an exit this summer.
