Tottenham Hotspur are said to be tracking Wolverhampton Wanderers right-back Matt Doherty.
Spurs have been monitoring the right-back, as they feel he could make a bright addition to their squad.
But his arrival at Tottenham would surely cause a departure, if it was to happen.
Spurs already have Kieran Trippier, Serge Aurier and Kyle Walker-Peters competing for the right-back berth in Mauricio Pochettino’s starting line-up.
And if Doherty was to arrive too, then Spurs would have far too many players competing for once place.
Trippier is currently Tottenham’s first choice right-back, but there has been suggestions he could be upgraded.
Aurier, meanwhile, has been erratic defensively since joining Tottenham, while Walker-Peters is still fighting to make the grade with Pochettino’s men.
And if Spurs do decide to make a move for Doherty then Pochettino would surely have to think about offloading at least one of the aforementioned trio.
