Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on a Brazilian starlet, who has had an outstanding debut season in Europe, but the Lilywhites will face plenty of competition for his services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reports indicate that Spurs have already started scouring the market for a midfielder, with De Zerbi\u2019s men determined to bolster their options in the middle of the park before the new season.<\/p>\n

\n

Tottenham may also need another number 10, with Xavi Simons ruled out for the rest of the calendar year after suffering an ACL injury, while there is no clarity on when Dejan Kulusevski will be back.<\/p>\n

The Lilywhites have now reportedly set their sights on a teenage attacking midfielder, who has shown fantastic potential following his big move to Europe last summer.<\/p>\n

Tottenham are one of several English clubs eyeing Shakhtar Donetsk starlet Isaque<\/h2>\n

Calicomercato.it have now revealed that Tottenham have set their sights on Isaque, who has had an outstanding debut season at Shakhtar Donetsk.<\/p>\n

The 19-year-old moved from Fluminense to the Ukrainian club for \u20ac12m (\u00a310.4m) including add-ons last summer, and has managed seven goals and seven assists this season.<\/p>\n

His impressive displays for Shakhtar have not only caught the eyes of Spurs, but also four other Premier League clubs.<\/p>\n

Chelsea, Bournemouth, Fulham and Nottingham Forest are prepared to challenge the North Lodnon club for the teenager, who could be set for a big move this summer.<\/p>\n

How much would Spurs need to pay for Isaque?<\/h2>\n

CaclioMercato.it reveal that the Brazilian is also on the radars of Inter Milan, Roma, Juventus and AC Milan, but they assert that he is likely to end up in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Shakhtar are hoping to raise around \u20ac30m (\u00a326m) from Isaque\u2019s sale, given the potential he has shown, not just in the Ukrainian league, but also in the Europa Conference League this season.<\/p>\n

The publication adds that Shakhtar are unlikely to offer a discount for the attacking midfielder as Fluminense would be owed 10 per cent of the transfer fee, while the player himself is also owed 7 per cent.<\/p>\n
