TOTTENHAM are interested in signing Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi, according to reports.
Spurs are keen to strengthen their defence and have several targets in mind ahead of the summer transfer window.
Antonio Conte tried to bring in Milan Skriniar and Alessandro Bastoni from Inter Milan last year.
But with a deal for that pair likely to prove tricky Spurs have turned their attention to Guehi, report the .

Clement Lenglet is also set to leave the club when his loan expires which means the North London outfit could sign two centre-backs when the transfer window opens.

Daniel Levy could focus his attention on Bastoni because of that, with Tottenham believed to have been considering a £43m January bid for the Italian.
