Tottenham are considering a summer move for Bayern Munich winger Douglas Costa.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino is keen to add greater quality to the depth of his squad this summer to ensure that Tottenham are able to compete in both the Premier League and the Champions League.

Costa, 26, signed for Bayern Munich from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2015 in a £21m deal overseen by Pep Guardiola but has found his opportunities more limited under Carlo Ancelotti this season.

He has started a combined 17 games in the Bundesliga and Champions League and Bayern may field bids in the region of £25-30million this summer.

The Brazilian international scored after coming on a substitute during Bayern's recent 5-1 victory at Arsenal.

However, all has not been well for Costa in Bavaria, after he revealed in February that he had wanted more regular playing time and that he had received contact from English clubs.

'It depends on a few factors,' Costa said. 'The main factor being minutes played. I cannot comment on names, but there are contacts with teams from England, Spain and also France. But we respect Bayern. I am still under contract until 2020.

'I think England is one of the biggest leagues in the world - fantastic! The language is easier in Spain but England also has great player. For me it is the best league in the world.'

In response, Bayern club president Uli Hoeness claimed Costa's actions were 'a desperate attempt to get a higher salary.'

Hoeness added: 'That doesn't work with us. He can try 10 more times. He is certainly not a hardship case.'
