Ito linked with Spurs switch

Japanese reports claims Tottenham are looking at Stuttgart centre-back Hiroki Ito.
Tottenham Hotspur have emerged as suitors for Stuttgart defender Hiroki Ito, according to a report from Japan.

Japanese newspaper Sponichi claims that the Premier League side are interested in signing the center-back this summer.

Stuttgart are said to be looking for a suitable replacement for Ito. With fellow centre-back Kostas Mavropanos also linked with an exit this summer, it would appear to be an area in which the club would be wise to strengthen.

Ito's contract with Stuttgart runs until 2025.
