Tottenham are ready to splash out close to £16million on young Venezuelan midfielder Yeferson Soteldo.

According to Don Balon, Spurs are looking to swoop for the pocket-sized 20-year-old next summer after another season in South America.

The report also states that Watford are keen on a deal to bring the youngster to the Premier League too.

Able to operate as a winger on either flank or in an attacking midfield role, Soteldo is currently playing for Chilean side Huachipato after securing a move in January from Zamora FC.

He is yet to get off the mark for his current club in eight appearances, but he did hit 21 goals in 84 appearances for his former employers.
