Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing England youth international Demarai Gray from Leicester City, according to a report.

The Lilywhites are said to have previously had a bid rejected for the winger, who will consider quitting the King Power Stadium this summer.

ESPN suggests that Spurs are about to step up their pursuit of the 21-year-old, with the aim of getting the vast majority of their transfer business complete early in the transfer window.

Mauricio Pochettino is known for his ability to improve young English talents, having done so with Dele Alli, Harry Kane and Eric Dier among others.

Gray, with 14 Premier League starts to his name this season, could therefore be tempted to swap clubs if his valuation is met.
