Highly-rated Ajax defender Urby Emanuelson has set his heart on a move to Tottenham, according to the player's agent.

Tottenham are reported to be keen on signing the full-back, but Ajax have warned all suitors off the highly-rated Dutch international.

Emanuelson's agent Brian Berkleef has urged Tottenham to make a new move for the 21-year-old with Emanuelson keen on a switch to White Hart Lane.

"Urby is very keen to join Tottenham. We've told Spurs to discuss the transfer again with Ajax," Berkleef told the Sunday Mirror.

"The player wants to go. We know Spurs want him but Ajax are involved in the battle for the Dutch title and they want to get back into the Champions League.

"It will be a hard battle, but the player knows where he wants to go."
