This summer, Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has strengthened his midfield by signing a top defensive midfielder in the form of Kenyan international Victor Wanyama from Southampton.
Moreover, the Argentine manager has also sealed the signing of a quality out and out striker in the form of Dutch star Vincent Janssen from AZ Alkmaar. The prolific forward finished last season as the top scorer in the Eredivisie with 27 goals.
Now, the former Southampton boss is looking reinforce the quality of his back line. Spurs had the best defense in the Premier League last season but they must add more depth.
If reports are anything to go by then Pochettino is ready to sign West Ham youngster Reece Oxford.
Tottenham have stepped up pursuit of the $20 million rated center back and watched the teenage defender play for the U-19 England side against the Netherlands on Friday (The Sun).
The 17-year-old starlet played 11 games for the U-21 West Ham side last season, scored a goal and provided an assist. He also made 7 Premier League appearances for the Hammers as well.
As per the provided Sun link, the likes of Man United and Man City are also interested in signing the young defender.
In your opinion, should Spurs sign Reece Oxford?

Lots of potential and great to add another English player to the squad.
Agree entirely Edi Edi. The policy of buying or bringing through young English talent is vitally important even if it was only a way of ensuring young English talent keeps emerging.
But just as important for the club itself, it ensures that if the change of law happened at any point, governing how many foreign players can be fielded in any premiership team, at least Spurs are, and will be, a club that is improving without missing a beat, regardless of any changes to the law that might happen.
Yes , definitely . I worry that reinforcing our defence is off Spurs’ radar at the moment . Reece would would be nice , as would a top class left back .
Crazy to let Top defender N’Golo Kante go to Chelsea 30+ Million,one of the main reasons fpr Leicesters Top Spot Finish & are considering 20+ Million for West Ham under 21 Kid?
