Tottenham boss Andre Villas is taking a close look at Basle winger Mohamed Salah.
The 21-year-old Egyptian scored in the Swiss side's 2-1 defeat of Chelsea in the Champions League last month.
The Daily Mail says Villas Boas was keen on Salah earlier this year but wanted to see whether he continued to progress.
Tottenham scouts watched his performance against Chelsea and plan further checks before January.
Basle value Salah at £15million but know other Premier League and European sides are keen.
