According to reports, Spurs are monitoring the situation of Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella, after a poor opening season at Stamford Bridge.
The Spanish full-back failed to impress after his £70m move from Brighton last summer and is reportedly set to join the host of players that have left the Blues this summer.
Mason Mount, N’Golo Kante, Kai Havertz and Kalidou Koulibaly have all moved on to pastures new, while Christian Pulisic continues talks with AC Milan.
New manager, Mauricio Pochettino, will be keen to finalise his squad before pre-season begins and Cucurella may not be a part of his plans.
Tottenham Hotspur are said to be ‘monitoring’ the Spaniard’s situation, despite the 24-year-old making 33 appearances for the Blues last season.

The 2022-23 season was a poor campaign for Spurs, as they finished outside the Premier League top seven for the first time in just under a decade.
Antonio Conte’s departure had a huge impact on the north London side, as his temporary replacement, Cristian Stellini was relieved of his duties after a month in charge.
Ryan Mason failed to turn things and the club ended their long search for a permanent head coach by appointing former Celtic coach, Ange Postecoglou, on a four-year deal.
However, despite the new head coach, club captain, Harry Kane has been linked with an imminent move and has attracted interest from Bayern Munich.
With key players, such as Kane, set to depart the need for summer additions has increased and the club have already signed Leicester City star, James Maddison for around £40m.
However, a deal to land Cucurella’s signature may face a few complications, as the 24-year-old signed for the Blues last summer and still has five-years remaining on his contract.
