Tottenham have held informal discussions with Lyon over a potential deal for Houssem Aouar, according to reports.

Spurs have signed Cristian Romero, Pierluigi Gollini and Bryan Gil so far this summer, and remain confident they will keep hold of Manchester City target Harry Kane.

And Nuno Espirito Santo's squad could yet be bolstered with another new face, as Tottenham weigh up a move for a midfielder.

According to Sky Sports, Tottenham have reached out to Aouar's representatives in recent days.

They have held informal talks with Aouar's agent to assess whether the midfielder might be open to a switch to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The club's list of targets also includes Cagliari's Nahitan Nandez and PSV's Noni Madueke, who was previously in the Tottenham academy.
