Tottenham ask for information on playmaker with 19 assists this season alone
A fresh report from France has suggested that the Premier League appears to be the most likely destination for Rayan Cherki, revealing that Tottenham are one of three English clubs that have made advances towards the attacking midfielder.
The Lyon attacker has emerged as one of the best young prospects in Ligue 1, and with just a year left on his contract, the chances of a summer move are now being talked up.
It has been reported by some sources over recent weeks that Tottenham have moved into pole position to land Rayan Cherki.
Some outlets have even claimed that Cherki’s representatives have already spoken to Spurs about a summer move after the North London club gave indications that they intend to make an approach for him.
Tottenham are battling Liverpool and Man City for Rayan Cherki
According to Le Parisien, the France Under-21 international is guaranteed to leave Lyon at the end of the season, with the club failing in their attempts to tie him down to a new deal.
The report says that a move to the Premier League appears to be on the cards for Cherki, while the Bundesliga also remains a plausible destination.
However, it is the interest from England that is the most serious, with Tottenham Hotspur already sitting at the table and ‘taking information’ on the player.
The Lilywhites are not alone, with Liverpool and Man City also studying a potential move for the Lyon man.
European giants pull out of race to sign Rayan Cherki
Le Parisien hand Tottenham a further boost by stating that Paris Saint-Germain are no longer contenders to win the race for Cherki.
It is pointed out that PSG came close to signing the winger last summer and the French giants went ‘mad with rage’ when the deal fell through.
Having been burned by last summer, the Champions League finalists do not intend to reignite their interest in the Lyon man.
