It is thus clear that Spurs have plenty of work to do to win the race for the attacking midfielder.READ MORE: Five exciting Tottenham academy stars who are ready to break through in 2026/27The post Tottenham reignite interest in France international even though PSG lead £52m race appeared first on Spurs Web.
