Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has reportedly sent scouts to watch the three players, and is keen to strengthen his squad with their signings during the January transfer window.

Tottenham have a good relationship with Galatasaray, having sold Davinson Sanchez to the Turkish club in the summer and loaned out Tanguy Ndombele to them.
Galatasaray are open to Nelsson leaving in January as they have already found his replacement in Sanchez.
Boey and Akturkoglu could take more convincing as they have key roles in the team.
Postecoglou is keeping his options open on which areas of his team he needs to strengthen in the new year, but Nelsson is said to be his top target, followed by Aktürkoğlu and Boey.
Aston Villa and Everton are also interested in signing Aktürkoğlu, who is 25 years old, and there are reports that Atletico Madrid are also monitoring him.
Atletico scouts were present at Galatasaray’s derby match against Beşiktaş last Sunday. Tottenham are also interested in signing Boey, and Postecoglou is eager to add the two players to his squad.
