The 18-year-old has earned comparisons with Juventus’ star midfielder Paul Pogba, and with his contract ending in the summer he could be available for a small compensation fee in just a few months. If Djalo is as good as his reputation suggests, Spurs could find themselves with a real bargain.

Mauricio Pochettino looks likely to concentrate on youth at White Hart Lane in a similar manner to how he did at Southampton last season.
