Tottenham chairman in Holland for talks with Ajax's Vertonghen

Tottenham have upped their ante in the pursuit of Jan Vertonghen in the form of chairman Daniel Levy flying to Holland today to meet with Ajax officials.

Spurs have been heavily linked with the Belgian centre-back recently and it appears likely that they will get their man after Vertonghen stated the only club in England for him is Tottenham.

Levy has continued talks with the Dutch giants but it seems that the North London club are not keen to pay the reported £12million that Ajax want for Vertonghen's services.

Talks involving the players agent Mustapha Nakhli are ongoing with a deal expected to be finalised as soon as an agreement can be made on the transfer fee.
