Tottenham is said to have been introduced to the Race to sign a Chelsea target white in the long term after he missed Ebereechi to Arsenal.
The side of Thomas Frank, who also saw a movement for Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest, cannot flourish, would like to reinforce in midfield before the closure of the transfer window.
As reported by the Telegraph, RB Leipzig's Xavi Simons, who is strongly connected to Chelsea this summer, has now emerged as a target for Tottenham.
There have been doubts about whether Chelsea can close a deal for the 22-year-old before the deadline.
Leipzig is open to the sale of Simons, who is supposed to give a move to Chelsea.
However, he may be willing to become a member of Tottenham, where Chelsea is said to have to sell more players if there is a move to continue.
The German club is supposed to want £ 60 million for Simons, who will also have considerable wage requirements.
Another midfielder, Maghnes Akliouche, is also followed by Tottenham.
The 23-year-old has received his first callup for the French senior team for matches against Ukraine and Iceland.
Tottenham was mainly frustrated to miss Eze to Arsenal when the international in England almost came to them from Crystal Palace.
Simons has less than two years on his contract with Leipzig, with the future of Dutch midfielder who seem to be elsewhere.
He started his senior career in Paris Saint-Germain and had an enchantment at PSV before returning to PSG and then came to Leipzig on loan.
Simons signed permanently for Leipzig in January of this year, but announced the club in May that he wanted to leave after they did not qualify for the Champions League.
Tottenham will participate in the European Elite Club competition, which could be attractive to Simons.
So far, Mohammed Kudus has been the most important arrival for Tottenham in this transfer window, while Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel made their loan movements permanent.
Joao Palhinha also arrived from Bayern Munich in a loan movement with an option for a permanent transfer.
