Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino could reportedly lodged an attempts to pursue Luke Shaw and Ross Barkley from Manchester United and Everton respectively when the transfer window reopens next month.

  • Spurs had maintained their interest in Barkley during the previous transfer window, but they elected against making a late move for his services after he sustained a hamstring injury.

    The England international has recently returned to play a closed-doors game for the Merseyside outfit, and Spurs are prepared to retain their interest in the attacker this winter, The Express claims.

    Meanwhile, Pochettino is also eyeing a potential reunion with Luke Shaw, who has struggled to command a regular starting spot under United boss Jose Mourinho.

    Mourinho is said to be eyeing a winter swoop for Fulham's Ryan Sessegnon to replace the left-sided defender, whilst Spurs' Danny Rose has also been touted as a potential target for the Mancunian giants.

    Tottenham are currently a point adrift of fourth-placed Liverpool, and Pochettino is hoping to pursue quality recruits in January to make a push for the Champions League spots.
