Tottenham Hotspur 'battling Rangers, Celtic for Kyle Joseph'

Tottenham Hotspur will reportedly have to fend off interest from Celtic, Rangers and Sheffield United to secure the services of Wigan Athletic starlet Kyle Joseph.

The 19-year-old has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign with the Latics and already boasts four goals in the current League One campaign, including a hat-trick in December's 4-3 victory over Burton Albion.

However, Joseph is now in the final six months of his deal with Leam Richardson's side and is free to enter talks with other clubs should he decide to move on in the summer.

Wigan are reportedly attempting to tie the striker down to a new deal, but according to The Mirror, a number of clubs are keeping tabs on his situation.

The report claims that Spurs, Rangers, Celtic and Sheffield United all hold an interest, but Wigan are yet to receive a concrete bid for the teenager.

Joseph has made seven appearances for the Scotland Under-19s team and scored his first goal at international level against Japan in September 2019.
