Spurs hope to steal march on Arsenal in bid to sign Ivory Coast defender Serge Aurier

Tottenham are rivalling Arsenal in the bid to sign Toulouse right-back Serge Aurier.
Talks are already underway for Swansea left-back Ben Davies but coach Mauricio Pochettino is also chasing a right-back with Kyle Walker recuperating from a pelvic injury.
Aurier has been one of the few successes for Ivory Coast in a disappointing World Cup campaign.
The 21-year-old has looked exciting going forward and would suit Tottenham's style.

He was clocked running at 33.52km/h during the World Cup group game against Colombia - faster than Arjen Robben - and thankfully in the right direction.
Arsenal have long been considered favourites for his signature while Marseille have also shown an interest but Tottenham hope to steal a march over the coming days.
