Spurs want £10million Portugal international midfielder Rafa Silva .

Mauricio Pochettino has a long-standing interest in the 23-year-old Braga star dating back to last season.

Silva was part of the Portugal squad that lifted the Euro 2016 title last month in France. Spurs are understood to be ready to enter into talks over a deal ahead of the coming campaign.

Zenit St Petersburg and Porto are both interested in him but Silva is understood to be keen to play in the Premier League.

They have swooped for £11million midfielder Victor Wanyama from Southampton, £18million striker Vincent Janssen from AZ Alkmaar and £10.8million winger Kevin N’Koudou from Marseille.

Cameroon forward Clinton N’jie is set to go the other way on loan in the latter deal once he receives a visa.
