Spurs, West Ham go for Charlton midfielder Poyet

Tottenham and West Ham United are chasing Charlton Athletic midfielder Diego Poyet.

The Daily Express says the promising 18-year-old, son of Sunderland boss Gus, has caught the eye of a number of Premier League managers during the struggling Championship side's recent FA Cup run.

The Addicks made it to the quarter finals before a defeat to League One outfit Sheffield United that cost popular boss Chris Powell his job.

With the club rock bottom of the Championship and staring down the barrel of relegation back to the third tier it is believed they will struggle to hold onto the England Under-17 man.
