"Manchester United and Spurs have been linked with a move for Memphis Depay.
The 21-year-old PSV winger is one of the most in-demand prospects in European football, and his rise to prominence has coincided with links to Tottenham and Manchester United.
The duo were reportedly attempting to sign the left-sided forward following some impressive displays at last summer’s World Cup, and it appears as if they will be going back in for him in 2015, according to the Mirror.
Depay has shown that he is an excellent talent, and despite his young age he has netted 22 goals in 32 games this season, despite not being an out-and-out striker. His creative play is just as good as his goalscoring, but to be used to full effect he must be utilised in a system with wingers.
His goal threat would be a welcome addition to Tottenham’s attacking line - with little consistency coming from the two wide players currently - and playing in a system that requires constant running and pressure plays ri

The 23-year-old has impressed so far this season with eight Serie A goals, and he earned himself an international call-up last year.
Zaza is valued at £12m and his agent is due to fly to London to negotiate a deal according to The Mirror, but the report also says that Spurs have competition from Juventus.
It is understood that the Italian champions have first option on Zaza, which makes them the clear favourite to complete a deal at the end of the season.
Zaza has netted once in four games for Italy."

"TOTTENHAM are plotting trio of summer signings with Kevin Wimmer, Islam Slimani and Aymen Abdennour all on Mauricio Pochettino's radar.
Reports emanating from France, Portugal and Britain all claim Spurs are ready to take the transfer window by storm with a quick-fire £33.5m raid.
Pochettino will adhere to Tottenham's transfer strategy of recruiting players aged 26 or below to help their youth blossom.
The Argentine boss wants to sign players who possess pace, energy and stamina to carry-out his high intensity footballing philosophy.
Wimmer, 22, is being monitored by Tottenham scouts and can be signed from German outfit FC Koln for a relatively low £6m with modest wages of £35,000 per-week.
Slimani, 26, who is rated at £6m impressed for Algeria during the 2014 World Cup finals, and harbours incredible pace to further develop Spurs' counter-attacking prowess.
Meanwhile Abdennour poses the most expensive transfer target for Tottenham, and is valued at a whopping £21.

I usually go for a defender as captain but which one of our lot would you go for?
That leaves the midfield but we're still limited so best buy Schneiderlin and make him skipper but in any case buy him even for £25 mill!
