Tottenham in player exchange talks with Orlando City

Tottenham are in talks with MLS outfit Orlando City about a player exchange programme.

The Daily Mail says Tottenham are in talks with MLS club Orlando City about formalising a player exchange arrangement at youth team level.

Representatives of Orlando's owners Zygi and Mark Wilf, who also own NFL franchise Minnesota Vikings, were at last weekend's Premier League game against West Ham. Tottenham are also keen to tap into their expertise in the American market as they seek to promote the club across the pond.

Tottenham goalkeeper Brandon Austin spent last season on loan at Orlando, making five appearances in the MLS, and more of the club's players are set to be sent to America to gain first-team experience in the future.
