Tottenham Hotspur eye Luiz Felipe as Toby Alderweireld replacement?

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly set their sights on Lazio centre-back Luiz Felipe as fears grow over the future of Toby Alderweireld.

The Belgian defender has a £25m release clause in his contract that kicks in this summer, making him a bargain target for a number of clubs.

According to the Daily Mail, Tottenham already have plans in place for possible replacement options, with Felipe being monitored up close in recent weeks.

Felipe started 12 Serie A games for Lazio last season and the same number so far in 2018-19, while also boasting experience in the Europa League, and he is valued at around £17m.

Sampdoria's Joachim Andersen is another possible option for Mauricio Pochettino, as is Michael Keane of Everton.
