Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that Tottenham are monitoring Marseille forward Michy Batshuayi ahead of the summer transfer window, although the Argentine insists the club have other striking targets on their wishlist.

Batshuayi is believed to be on Spurs' radar as well as that of West Ham and Juventus following a season in which the 22-year-old has scored 15 Ligue 1 goals for Marseille.

The Belgium international only signed a new contract with the French side in January, which lasts until 2020, but he is still expected to leave Marseille at the end of the season, and it is thought that he would prefer a move to White Hart Lane over the Hammers.

With Spurs seeking a back-up option to first-choice striker Harry Kane this summer, Pochettino has admitted that Batshuayi is among a number of targets Tottenham are currently scouting.

"We are looking for a striker this summer, that's clear," Pochettino told French radio station RMC. "Michy's a young player who has a lot of talent. He is on the list of many clubs.

"We have quite a few people who have given us information about him. He has good potential. We'll see.

"We have other players in our sights too."

Pochettino also confirmed that Lyon defender, Samuel Umtiti, is another player Tottenham have been looking at ahead of the summer transfer window.

"Umtiti is one of the players that our recruitment department is following," he said. "He has interesting potential."
