Tottenham Hotspur reportedly sent scouts to watch Galatasaray winger Kerem Akturkoglu in action in Tuesday's Champions League clash with Manchester United.

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly scouted Galatasaray winger Kerem Akturkoglu.

Spurs strengthened their attacking options over the summer with the additions of Brennan Johnson, James Maddison, Manor Solomon and Alejo Veliz.

Sweden international Dejan Kulusevski also signed on a permanent transfer following an 18-month loan move from Juventus.

Despite bringing in a number of players during the summer window, Tottenham are currently on the lookout for further signings.

According to Fotospor, the North London club are interested in signing Akturkoglu from Turkish giants Galatasaray.

The report suggests that Tottenham scouts were in attendance for Galatarasay's Champions League meeting with Manchester United on Tuesday.

Akturkoglu scored Galatasaray's second goal at Old Trafford to help his side claim a 3-2 victory over the 20-time English champions.

While the 24-year-old is predominantly a left winger, he has experience playing on the opposite flank as well as a second striker.

Akturkoglu has enjoyed a successful start to the season, scoring five goals and providing seven assists in 16 competitive appearances.

In total, Akturkoglu has scored 34 goals and contributed 37 assists in 135 matches since joining the club in 2020.

The Turkey international, who has earned 22 caps for his country, is under contract with Galatasaray until the summer of 2026.

Spurs are expected to send scouts again to watch Akturkoglu in Galatasaray's Champions League home fixture against Bayern Munich on October 24.

Ange Postecoglou's side are also believed to be scouting Akturkoglu's teammates Sacha Boey and Victor Nelsson.
