Tottenham are said to be pursuing Patrick Kluivert.
A report in Italy has suggested Tottenham Hotspur may have made an offer for Justin Kluivert.
Spurs are long term admirers of Kluivert with SkySports reporting their interest last Autumn.
Kluivert is the son of former Ajax legend Patrick Kluivert, the striker who scored the goal to win the 1994/95 Champions League.
The Roma and Tottenham target is a winger who is already a regular with Ajax and helped them reach the Europa League final in 2016/17.
The 19-year-old struck 11 goals for Ajax this past season and has recently been involved in a bitter war of words with the Ajax hierarchy over his contract.
Roma’s reported offer – said to match one from Tottenham – equates to £21.8 million.
He is a promising young player, but unproven in a top league.
Spurs had high hopes for Clinton N’Jie and Georges-Kevin N’Koudou who had similar goalscoring records and were around the same age as Kluivert, and neither were successful.
Spending the money on an older and more proven player would be a better move.
Here is a look at how Tottenham fans reacted to the report…
