Tottenham Hotspur are interested in the Brentford midfielder Yegor Yarmolyuk this summer.
According to CaughtOffside, they are keen on the 21-year-old central midfielder, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.
Spurs need a midfielder
They need someone who can control the tempo of the game and add composure and control to the side. The Ukrainian certainly fits the profile, and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can secure an agreement over the fee.
The player is reportedly on the radar of Leeds United as well. He has demonstrated his ability with Brentford and possesses the tools to succeed in the Premier League.
The opportunity to join one of the top clubs in the country will be hard to turn down for the 21-year-old. Spurs have secured Champions League qualification for the next season, making them an attractive destination. It remains to be seen whether they can bring in the right additions during the summer transfer window and bounce back strongly.

Yegor Yarmolyuk would be a long-term asset
The 21-year-old is young enough to improve further, and he could develop into a key player for the club. Joining one of the biggest clubs in the country could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his potential. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
The midfielder is well settled in English football, and he could join Tottenham and make an instant impact. The opportunity to play under Thomas Frank at the North London club will be an added incentive. The Danish manager is expected to take over as the new manager at Tottenham.
The Ukrainian is quite young, and he will only get better with coaching and experience. If Tottenham can sign him for a reasonable amount of money now, the deal could look like a huge bargain.
