Tottenham are eyeing a fresh move for Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes after seeing Ross Barkley complete a January move to Chelsea.

Spurs were close to signing Gomes, 24, last summer and are ready to revive their interest in the Portugal international this month, according to the Daily Express.

Having signed for Barca in the summer of 2016 from fellow La Liga outfit Valencia, Gomes has struggled for regular first-team football this term, starting just two league games and one Champions League fixture.

Tottenham are looking at bringing Gomes to north London after pulling out of the battle to sign England international Barkley.




Mauricio Pochettino expressed interest in the former Everton man last summer but has reportedly set his sights back on Gomes. Barkley joined Chelsea for £15million earlier in the week.

Manchester United have also been long-term admirers of the Portuguese midfielder but are not currently pursuing a move, leaving Spurs in the driving seat to secure his services.

Tottenham, who have dropped out of the top four this season, face League One side Wimbledon in the third round of the FA Cup on Sunday.
