Tottenham Hotspur 'keeping tabs on Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard'

Tottenham Hotspur have put Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard on their watchlist ahead of Tuesday's transfer deadline, according to a report.

Edouard, who played in the Old Firm derby yesterday, is in the final year of his contract at Parkhead and has been heavily linked with a move away this summer.

The 23-year-old is the subject of a bidding war between Everton, Crystal Palace and Brighton & Hove Albion in the final 36 hours of the window.

According to the Daily Record, Spurs are monitoring the situation too and could make a late move of their own for the Frenchman.

The report adds that Russian side Rubin Kazan are also preparing an £18m offer for Edouard, but he is keen on a move to England.

Should he move to Tottenham, he would likely be backup to Harry Kane as Nuno Espirito Santo most commonly uses a 4-3-3 formation.

Formerly of Paris Saint-Germain's academy, Edouard has scored 88 goals in 179 appearances for Celtic since signing in 2017.
