According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham Hotspur have now reached out over a potential deal for Jobe Bellingham this summer.

The 18-year-old has had an exceptional first season at Sunderland since joining the club from Birmingham City last summer and it first emerged ahead of the January transfer window that Spurs are keeping tabs on the youngster (Football Insider).

Just a couple of days ago, The Guardian reporter Ed Aarons, suggested that Tottenham, Crystal Palace, Brentford and several other clubs across Europe have expressed an interest in securing the teenager this summer.

The journalist explained that the Black Cats are reluctant to let the starlet leave and are expected to demand in excess of £20m for his services.
