TOTTENHAM are eyeing up an audacious summer move for Borussia Dortmund starlet Jamie Gittens.
Winger Gittens, 20, has been a long-term target of Spurs who are keen to bolster the left-side of their attack.

But there is likely to be plenty of competition for the former Manchester City academy player.
Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea also tracking the England Under-21 international.
Gittens has scored 16 goals in 91 appearances for Dortmund, coming on as a late sub in last season’s Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid.
This year he has developed into a first-team regular, netting 11 goals in 33 appearances.
He has not scored in eight games though as Dortmund have slid down to 11th in the Bundesliga table, winning just one and losing five of their last seven league games.
Dortmund are eight points off the top four but are still in the Champions League, holding a 3-0 lead going into their play-off second leg against Sporting Lisbon.
Should they miss out on qualification for Europe’s elite club competition for next season, they may be forced to cash in on Gittens, believed to be valued at £80million.
Former Dortmund and Liverpool striker Karl Heinz-Riedle told SunSport in November that Gittens has the potential to emulate ex-team-mates Jude Bellingham and Jadon Sancho.

The German, 59, said: “Jamie is still not 100 per cent what we expect from a world-class player — but he has all the talent to become one of those.
“He can become the next Sancho, Erling Haaland or Bellingham.”
Gittens has 16 goals for Dortmund in 91 matches – scoring 11 of those this season/.
