​West Ham and Spurs send scouts to watch Santos defender Zabala

Several European clubs are hot on the trail of Santos centre-back Leonardo Zabala.

The likes of West Ham United, Tottenham, and FC Porto are watching the 18-year-old Bolivian.

While Zabala has not yet played for the Santos first team, he has impressed enough to earn national team games for Bolivia.

He came off the bench in a World Cup Qualifying defeat to Brazil recently.

The source of interest in Zabala is journalist Ekrem Konur, but there is no indication of how much a possible deal would cost interested clubs.
