Tottenham eye move for Jeremain Lens

Dutch international striker Jeremain Lens is a target for Tottenham Hotspur. In January, it is understood that Spurs are to table a bid of around £9.5 million for the Dinamo Kiev striker.

Lens is concerned about the ongoing conflict between the Ukraine and Russia and is set to move for another country in January if a deal can be agreed. It is being reported in the Netherlands that Tottenham are in pole position for the former PSV Eindhoven striker's signature.

Lens has had a very successful spell in the Ukraine since his move east from PSV in 2013 and also was a part of Holland's 2014 World Cup squad in which his country came third.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino wants to bring in a fourth forward to provide competition for Roberto Soldado, Emmanuel Adebayor and Harry Kane.
