Tottenham reportedly rivalling Barca for young playmaker

According to Spanish news outlet Marca, Tottenham are rivalling the great Barcelona for the signature of a young playmaker from Gent.

19-year-old Giorgi Chakvetadze has been in great form this campaign, scoring four and setting up two already in just 15 league appearances.

The youngster came through the ranks at Dinamo Tbilisi before securing a move to Gent in 2017.

The teenager is already an international player too, racking up seven caps for Georgia.

Chakvetadze is very highly rated among European clubs, with Spurs and Bournemouth said to be the most interested Premier League parties.

HITC describe him as a skilful and creative playmaker who can transfer his skills either out wide or up top with a superb change of pace.

Pochettino has a good record of developing young talent both at Spurs and his previous club Southampton.

Perhaps he can shine this talented teen into a diamond too.

Good luck spelling that name out when you’re buying your shirts though.
