Tottenham expected to return for playmaker they failed to sign in winter transfer window

Tottenham may yet revive their interest in Maghnes Akliouche when the summer transfer window opens, after missing out on the Monaco playmaker during January.

According to TEAMtalk, Spurs explored the possibility of a deal earlier this year but ultimately saw the 23-year-old remain with AS Monaco as the window closed.

Akliouche has enjoyed another impressive campaign in Ligue 1, continuing to build a reputation as one of the division’s most technically gifted attacking midfielders.
