The players linked with a Spurs transfer today including Ndombele news, a £27m man and two exits

Tottenham continue to be linked with a number of players in the summer transfer window.

With Mauricio Pochettino guiding the club to a fourth-place finish last season, and back into the Champions League, without making any signings in the previous two windows, there is an expectation that Spurs will spend big to challenge the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool next season.

Fans would like to see a couple of new full-backs and central midfield reinforcements come in, while there is the age old problem of who is the back-up to Harry Kane.

Here we take a look at the players who have been linked with a Spurs transfer today.

Tanguy Ndombele

Who? France midfielder who has been a reported Tottenham target for some time now.

Where? This transfer is being reported everywhere, and with Spurs in the market for a new central midfielder, it's easy to understand why.

The latest news on Ndombele's potential move is that Spurs and his current club Lyon appear to be €25million apart in their valuations.

Lyon want €75million, Spurs are prepared to offer €50million.

What? There is genuine interest there, it's whether or not a deal can be done.

Lorenzo Pellegrini

Who? A 22-year-old Roma midfielder who has enjoyed a fine season in Serie A.

Where? The Mirror have reported that Arsenal are keen on the midfielder to replace Aaron Ramsey.

But Tottenham have also reportedly held talks with the player's representatives over a potential move to this side of north London.

Has a release clause of £27million, but the two Milan clubs are both interested too.

What? This is a new one which has surfaced, and to be honest, there are stronger links to central midfielders than Pellegrini.

Toby Alderweireld

Who? Tottenham centre-back with just one year left on his current contract.

Where? football.london has reported on the latest with the Belgian defender today.

Manchester United have held a long-standing interest in the 30-year-old defender, and were tipped to sign him last summer, but never got a deal over the line.

And we have revealed exactly when the Red Devils have to place a £25million offer to Spurs to get to talk to him.

What? Someone will surely offer £25million before the deadline passes, it then becomes a case of whether or not the Belgian wants to go.

Christian Eriksen

Who? Spurs playmaker who has admitted it might be time for a "new challenge".

Where? It has been reported in the Danish press, in Ekstra Bladet, to whom he gave the original interview about leaving, that he will say no more about his future at this time.

Eriksen revealed there would be "no more bombs" because he "said what needed to be said".

What? Watch this space. Real Madrid are reportedly out of the running, which points to the Dane potentially signing a new deal with Spurs.
