TOTTENHAM are considering a move for Everton youngster Ademola Lookman, according to reports.
The Toffees beat Spurs to the England Under-21 star's signature in January after agreeing an £11million fee with Charlton.
But Lookman, 19, has found game time limited under Ronald Koeman and has started just two matches - the Europa League clashes against Hajduk Split in August - this season.
And Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is weighing up whether to make another move for the highly-rated teen, according to the .
Crystal Palace and Huddersfield are also said to be interested in the winger.
Lookman scored 11 league goals in two seasons at Charlton after forcing his way into the senior team as an 18 year old in 2015.
He got his Everton career off to a flier by scoring with his first shot in his debut against Manchester City in January's 4-0 Premier League win - in front of the Goodison Park faithful.
Lookman went on to make seven more league appearances towards the end of last term but has been trusted only in the Europa League and EFL Cup this term.

"Not only has he scored a load of goals but he’s also silenced those questioning his link-up play and the first touch.
"He’s the only player in my mind when it comes to the first goalscorer market - and I fancy United to get loads againsrt Crystal Palace."
So Poch's interest in Lookman could be to allow for new formations if his Plan A does not work.
