Spurs tempted by Simeone Jr

- BY DARREN LEWIS

TOTTENHAM are interested in Genoa forward Giovanni Simeone, son of the Atletico Madrid manager Diego.

The 22-year-old has also attracted the attention of Crystal Palace, Torino and Fiorentina after 12 goals in his first 35 Serie A games last term.

And last season’s Premier League runners-up are to step up their interest in Schalke’s Max Meyer.

Spurs had an approach for the 21-year-old attacking midfielder turned down 12 months ago.

He has since refused to sign a new deal and, with just 12 months left to run on his contract, could move on for what would be a cut-price fee.
