According to Turkish news outlet Milliyet, Tottenham are now locked in a three-horse race to sign Galatasaray star Baris Alper Yilmaz, who is also attracting interest from two other Premier League clubs.
Yilmaz has emerged as one of the most exciting attackers in the Turkish top flight over the last couple of years and the winger’s stock grew further in light of his impressive showing at the Euros this summer.
On the back of his displays in Germany, it is revealed that Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester United are all set to battle it out for the 24-year-old’s signature.
The report claims that the Lilywhites view the versatile attacker as someone who can add depth to their forward line while the Reds and the Red Devils are also keen on securing his services.
The outlet states that Galatasaray value Yilmaz at around €30m (£25.3m), which is not expected to be a major stumbling block for the three English sides.
The publication adds that the player is quite excited at the prospect of moving to the Premier League as he wants to test himself at the highest level.

The Yilmaz to Tottenham rumours have now been going strong for many months but the story has only been carried by Turkish outlets.
The journalists with good connections Spurs (such as Alasdair Gold and others) and the ones who have connections with various big agents in the game (such as David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano) have not named the winger as someone the Lilywhites are eying.
