A report claims that Tottenham Hotspur are preparing to make a summer move for Mainz 05's attacking midfielder Yunus Malli.

Mainz 05 are reportedly braced to receive a summer bid from Tottenham Hotspur for their attacking midfielder Yunus Malli.

The Turk has scored 10 goals and assisted a further two in 26 Bundesliga outings this term.

According to The Mirror, Spurs shelved plans to sign the 24-year-old during the January transfer window, but they plan to renew their interest at the end of the season.

The report adds that Malli, who has also been linked with Borussia Dortmund and Valencia, is valued at around £8m.

Should he make the move to White Hart Lane, he will be the third player from the Bundesliga to have done so in the last 12 months after Kevin Wimmer and Son Heung-Min.
