Tottenham have been linked with a move for Dijon playmaker Kwon Chang-hoon.

Tottenham Hotspur reportedly scouted Dijon midfielder Kwon Chang-hoon on Friday evening as the South Korea international continues to impress in the top tier of French football.

French outlet Mercato365 claim Spurs talent spotters were in attendance as the 23-year-old failed to prevent his side losing 5-2 to Ligue 1 giants Lyon.

The seven-time international has been in excellent form for Dijon this season, after joining the French side from K-League outfit Suwon Bluewings in January 2017.

Kwon has scored nine goals from midfield, being used mainly out on the right wing but also being able to ply his trade from the middle of the park or indeed out on the left.

The versatile star is not the only Asian player to be linked with Spurs of late, with Cagliari’s North Korean teenager Han Kwang-son also reportedly interesting the north Londoners.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side already boast a number of attacking stars that would sit above Kwon in the pecking order, especially after the January signing of Brazilian Lucas Moura from PSG.

Dijon’s number 22 has three years to run on his current contract, but the lure of Tottenham is surely something that the midfield ace will not turn down. Spurs fans will be able to see the star shine in the World Cup this summer.

Spurs fans reacted to the link on Twitter, with many sarcastically stating that Kwon is the missing ingredient between Pochettino’s side winning the Premier League title and finishing fourth.
