Tottenham not shelving pursuit of Monaco defender Aymen Abdennour

Tottenham haven't dropped their interest in AS Monaco defender Aymen Abdennour.

Abdennour confirmed Spurs' interest last week, admitting the Londoners were in contact before he committed to a new deal with ASM to 2019.

Fichajes.com says Tottenham haven't shelved their pursuit and plan to test Monaco's resolve this summer with a bid for Abdennour.

Interestingly, it is claimed Spurs are not alone in Premier League interest for the defender.

Abdennour said: "Yes, I am aware of it (the interest). But I am at Monaco and I am concentrating on my club."

When asked if he would consider a move to Spurs, he added: "Why not? Right now I have to be patient."
