Spurs plan huge bid for Watford pair Richarlison and Abdoulaye Doucoure

Tottenham are chasing Watford pair Richarlison and Abdoulaye Doucoure.

The Sun says Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is eyeing a £50million double swoop on Watford for Richarlison and Doucoure.

Tottenham boss Poch wants support for Harry Kane and has been impressed by £30m-rated Richarlison in his first Premier League season.

The Brazilian, 20, whose contract runs until 2022, is also attracting interest from Chelsea after scoring five goals as a wide forward at Watford.

Doucoure, signed for £4.5m from Rennes, has looked good in central midfield since returning from a loan at Granada two seasons ago.

The Frenchman, 25, is yet to agree to a new Hornets deal and Spurs are ready to move for him.

Richarlison was signed for £13m last summer from Fluminense but Watford could more than double their money now.
