Tottenham are eyeing Brighton attacker Leandro Trossard.

The London Evening Standard says Spurs are interested in Trossard, with the club in the market for a new attacker during the January transfer window ahead of Lucas Moura's expected departure.

The option to extend Lucas' contract by a further year elapsed on December 31 without being triggered, so his deal will expire at the end of the season when he will be available on a Bosman transfer.

Trossard, who has 18 months remaining on his contract at Brighton, has emerged as a target in January, while the club last month enquired about their former academy player Marcus Edwards, now at Sporting Lisbon.

However, initial contact has not been followed up upon and the 24-year-old winger is expected to decide his future in the summer.
