Tottenham have identified AC Milan right winger Suso as a priority summer target, according to Marca.

The reliable Spanish publication claim Spurs have set their sights on the former Liverpool player, who has kickstarted his career with an impressive spell in Italy over the last two years.

Marca report that Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is a big admirer of the 23-year-old and wants to sign him as part of a revamp to enable the club to be more competitive in the Champions League next season.

Spurs failed to make it out of the group stage of Europe’s top competition last season and then compounded their misery with elimination from the Europa League at the first hurdle.

But the Londoners produced their best campaign of the Premier League era to storm to a second place finish that has prompted hopes of their first tile in over five decades.

Suso is on their radar after a fine season for Milan in which he scored seven goals and supplied 11 assists in 34 Serie A matches from his right-flank role.

The former Spain Under-21 international had spent the previous campaign on loan at Genoa following his arrival from Liverpool in January 2015.

Suso made 21 appearances for the Merseyside giants before his exit.
