Tottenham have reportedly earmarked two midfield targets to chase in the January transfer window. Manager Ange Postecoglou should benefit from renewed pulling power in the market, with Spurs flying high at the top of the Premier League in the early stages of his tenure.<\/p>\n
The 26 points Tottenham have banked across 10 matches represents the best start of any manager making their first foray into the Premier League.<\/p>\n
That, coupled with the instant impact of summer signings such as James Maddison and Micky van de Ven, should instil confidence in Spurs chairman Daniel Levy that Postecoglou is worth backing in the January transfer market.<\/p>\n
According to Turkish outlet A Spor, one of the players under consideration is Fenerbahce star Ismael Yuksek. The Londoners have reportedly sent scouts to watch the midfielder, whose hard-working and powerful playing style has drawn comparisons with Declan Rice.<\/p>\n

By contrast, Celtic are expected to demand a hefty transfer fee for fellow midfielder Matt O’Riley.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5042789.jpg?r=1698787921189\")
