Tottenham are among the three Premier League clubs chasing the signing of highly-rated Brighton winger Solly March this January.

According to reports, Spurs could compete with the likes of Newcastle and Crystal Palace for the England Under-21 international, who has two goals in 35 games for the Championship club.

Mauricio Pochettino already has plenty of options out wide with players like Christian Eriksen, Nacer Chadli and Erik Lamela, as well as impressive summer signing Son Heung-min.

Still, Tottenham would do well to bring in this top prospect for the future, with under-performers like Andros Townsend perhaps not in the Argentine’s long-term plans.
