Tottenham interested in signing Real Madrid defender

Tottenham have reportedly enquired about the signing of Real Madrid defender Eder Militao.

The Brazilian joined the Bernabeu outfit last summer and has since made 9 appearances in La Liga.

According to El Desmarque, Jose Mourinho is said to be considering a summer move for the 22-year-old.

Militao has largely failed to impress in his debut season in Spain, mainly appearing as a substitute.

The former Porto man is a right-back by trade but can also play as a defensive midfielder.

Meanwhile, Spurs are desperate for reinforcements this summer as a result of their lacklustre season this term.

Furthermore, injuries have played a spoilsport for Mourinho's side as they are likely to be without Steven Bergwijn and Son Heung-Min for the remainder of the season.

The north London club were recently eliminated from the FA Cup after losing to Norwich City in the fifth round.
