Tottenham Hotspur considering January bid for Everton Soares?

Tottenham Hotspur will reportedly monitor Gremio and Brazil forward Everton Soares ahead of the January transfer window.

The North London club sent chief scout Steve Hitchen to watch the 23-year-old in action during Gremio's Copa Libertadores semi-final first-leg against Flamengo.

Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly held meetings with chairman Daniel Levy over how to address a depleted squad in January.

According to Sky Sports News, Spurs will continue to keep a close eye on Everton's progress ahead of the January window.

The Brazilian was the star of his nation's triumph in the Copa America over the summer, scoring three goals to claim the Golden Boot.

Reports over the summer suggested that local rivals Arsenal had prepared a bid for Everton, who is valued at around £35m.
