Mainz star Malli, Lille ace Boufal remain on Tottenham radar

Tottenham are continuing to keep tabs on a pair of potential back-up plans to Georginio Wijgnaldum.

According to the Daily Mail, Spurs still have Mainz star Yunus Malli and Lille ace Sofiane Boufal on their radar in case they are priced out of a move for Newcastle United's Wijnaldum.

The pair of attacking midfielders represent better value than Dutchman Wijnaldum who is being valued at £25million by the relegated Toon.

23-year-old German-born Turkey international Malli has previously been linked with Tottenham and remains firmly in their sights while 22-year-old French-born Moroccan Boufal is also an option for Mauricio Pochettino who is eager to find a new attacking midfielder this summer.
