Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho is keen to sign Matt Doherty from Wolves following the defender's impressive form last season.
The 28-year-old Republic of Ireland international made 50 appearances for the Midlands club last season and has enhanced his reputation as a reliable defender and a significant threat going forward, scoring seven times in all competitions.

Reports suggest Doherty could cost Spurs around £12m, although no bid has yet been made.
Tottenham are thought to be willing to offload right-back Serge Aurier this summer, with AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen showing an interest.
The 27-year-old Ivory Coast international has two years left on his Spurs contract having joined from Paris Saint-Germain in August 2017 for £23m.
