Tottenham Hotspur are mulling over whether to make an approach to Newcastle United for Allan Saint-Maximin, according to Football.London.

The report claims that Spurs’ managing director of football Fabio Paratici is a big admirer of the winger, who has caught the eye with his performances for the Magpies.

With Steven Bergwijn having been linked with a move to Ajax, there is likely to be a requirement for cover to come in on the left flank for the likes of Heung-min Son and Lucas Moura.

The 25-year-old is known for his trickery on the ball played a key role in helping Eddie Howe’s side avoid relegation and ended up registering a respectable eleventh place finish in the Premier League.

The Frenchman admitted last month that he does not expect to leave Newcastle this summer and is happy at the club (Goal).
