Tottenham Hotspur are monitoring AS Monaco midfielder, a 23-year-old talent with 20 goal contributions last season, as the club looks to strengthen their attacking options.

In an ideal scenario, Tottenham Hotspur would be hoping to get their transfer dealings done nice and early before the UEFA Super Cup.

However, there is a big case of who would lead the club next season, with manager Ange Postecoglou’s future still in doubt following his poor Premier League campaign in his second season in charge.

Regardless, Spurs continue to be linked with moves for some of Europe’s top talent, and the latest one is an exciting prospect with 20 goal contributions.

CaughtOffside has now revealed that Tottenham are amongst a host of clubs monitoring AS Monaco attacking midfielder Maghnes Akliouche.

The 23-year-old midfielder, who has scored eight goals and 12 assists, is a player who could be heading out of the Ligue 1 side, as AS Monaco believes it would be difficult for them to keep hold of him this summer.

According to the publication, the Premier League could be a likely destination for the talented midfielder, with Spurs said to be showing strong interest in the Frenchman.
