Tottenham, Juventus keen on Anderlecht's Mbokani says agent

The agent of Anderlecht striker Dieumerci Mbokani suggests his client is being targeted by both Juventus and Tottenham.

The 26-year old DR Congo international has attracted interest from top clubs in Europe recently with his representative Fabio Baglio suggesting that there is some actual curiosity toward the former Standard Liege and Monaco man.

"Juventus is most concrete suitor for Mbokani," Baglio told Het Nieuwsblad.

"Their interest is not new, because they followed 'Dieu' when he still played at Standard Liege.

"During this summer Juventus came forward late for him, but in the meantime there were contacts between Anderlecht and Juventus.

"(The) previous week I was in Turin. I saw the Juventus match, they have an awesome team but there isn't a player like Mbokani.

"I don't know if Anderlecht could sell him in January, but there are many candidates."

He added: "There is Fiorentina, which is building a new team, and in England Tottenham is the most interested player.

"And then his performance at the San Siro (in their last UEFA Champions League match) did not leave Milan indifferent, either."
