Tottenham Hotspur targeting Bilbao youngster

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in signing young Athletic Bilbao midfielder Ander Herrera in January.

The Spanish under-21 international has caught the eye of Harry Redknapp and Daniel Levy after performances at this summer's European under-21 championship, which Spain won.

Bilbao are also allegedly willing to sell but will not let the 22-year-old go for any less than £15m.

Herrera is currently out of action because of a knee problem, which means that any White Hart Lane scouts will have to wait to have a closer look at the Spaniard.
