Spurs 'among four clubs interested in Demarai Gray'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to battle Everton, Southampton and Crystal Palace for the signature of Leicester City outcast Demarai Gray.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly one of four Premier League clubs interested in a deal for Leicester City outcast Demarai Gray.

Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers recently admitted that the 24-year-old is likely to be plying his trade somewhere else next season after falling out of favour at the King Power Stadium.

Gray was part of the 2015-16 Leicester title-winning team, but the winger has only made one appearance for the senior side this season in the EFL Cup and is about to enter the final six months of his deal.

According to 90 Min, Tottenham are admirers of Gray despite his lack of first-team action this season, while Everton, Southampton and Crystal Palace are also ready to do battle for his signature.

The report also adds that Leicester have identified Celtic's Ryan Christie - who worked with Rodgers during his time in Scotland - as a potential replacement, and the Foxes are also keeping an eye on £30m-rated Reading starlet Michael Olise.

Gray has made four appearances in the 2020-21 Premier League 2 campaign, banking three goals and one assist for the Under-23s team.
