Spurs boss AVB eyeing young Barcelona B trio

Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas is tracking Barcelona youngster Sergi Samper.

The Daily Mail says AVB took time out of the international break to watch Barca B take on Deportivo in Spain's second division, a game the hosts lost 1-0.

The Spurs boss is looking for a striker in January - but it is 18-year-old midfielder Sergi Samper he is paying closest attention to.

Villas-Boas is checking Spain Under 19 international Samper while fellow midfielder Javier Espinosa, 21, and goalkeeper Jordi Masip, 24, are others on the manager's radar.
