Toby Alderweireld is facing an uncertain future at the club, and Spurs are considering buying another centre-back in case he leaves.
The report claims that Tottenham are tracking Ajax’s 18-year-old Matthijs de Ligt and Newcastle United’s Lascelles. Plus, they retain an interest in Jonny Evans, who will be available for just £3m when West Browmich Albion are relegated.
Newcastle signed Lascelles from Championship side Nottingham Forest back in 2014, and the player has gradually developed into a fine player under Rafael Benitez.
He is the club captain at the Tyneside club, and Newcastle fans adore the 24-year-old.
Lascelles has a long term contract at the club, and Benitez has said recently that he would love to see the defender staying at the club for a few more years.
Spurs are not the only club interested in Lascelles. The Mirror reported last month that London rivals Chelsea are considering making a £30 million move for him. The Sun had reported last month that West Ham are also keen to sign Lascelles.
