Tottenham may join Chelsea and Manchester United in the race to sign Paris Saint-Germain right back Serge Aurier, according to Tuttomercatoweb.

Spurs are seeking a replacement for Kyle Walker who left for Manchester City in a £50m deal earlier this summer, and the Ivorian is attracting interest from a number of teams, with PSG likely to let the 24 year old leave after signing Dani Alves from Juventus.

Aurier is reportedly on Chelsea’s list of transfer targets but the Blues are said to be looking at a number options for the right flank, with Valencia’s Joao Cancelo and Inter’s Andrea Candreva also linked with a switch to Stamford Bridge.

English clubs will however likely delay their pursuit of Aurier until a decision is made on his appeal against an assault conviction. The defender will not be granted a UK work visa if he has a criminal record. He was prevented from entering the country when PSG faced Arsenal in the Champions League last year due to the suspended two year prison sentence.
