According to Italian outlet Calciomercato (h/t ESPN), Tottenham Hotspur are being linked with a move for exciting 20-year-old midfielder Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

The Georgian professional footballer has played an instrumental part for Rubin Kazan this season and is being monitored by a host of clubs. AC Milan is thought to have shown an interest but the €20m price tag may have taken them aback

Tottenham Hotspur are also believed to be interested in the 20-year-old. He recently showcased what he can do on the big occasion by thumping two goals for Georgia against Sweden in their World Cup qualifier against Sweden on Thursday.

Kvaratskhelia has scored 8 goals and provided 15 assists across 65 matches in all competitions for the Russian club until now. The Lilywhites have become adept at bringing young talent into their club ever since the arrival of Fabio Paratici.

He could certainly take some time to get used to the intensity and physicality of the game in England. That being said Spurs may have to tussle against other clubs like Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Monchengladbach for the youngster.

There is no sure-shot news that the North Londoners are drumming up a transfer for the talented youngster and any rumour is only based on speculation at the moment, so fans should be wary of getting too excited too soon.
