According to the Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur are keen on moving for the signature of Beijing Guoan centre-back Kim Min-jae before the end of this month after failing to land him during the summer transfer window.
Spurs wanted to sign the South Korean international following the departure of Jan Vertonghen, but they went after Joe Rodon instead. Chelsea have now registered interest in recruiting the services of Min-jae, and that has kept the North Londoners on their toes. Jose Mourinho’s men have shipped just 16 goals in 17 Premier League games this term – the second lowest in the top-flight – but they could do with more steel at the back, and are looking to strengthen the department by signing the Asian star.
