Spurs plot £15m move for Basel's Mohamed Salah

Basel winger Mohamed Salah is said to be a £15m transfer target for Tottenham.

The 21-year-old has been in impressive form for the past couple of seasons and it was quite a surprise that he started this season with the Swiss side.

Andre Villas Boas has reportedly been monitoring the Egyptian youngster for several months and is tracking his progress.

Headline-grabbing performances like his goal in last month’s win over Chelsea are not likely to deter the Spurs boss.

The Daily Mail reports that he is now weighing up a £15m bid.
