Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly still interested in signing Eintracht Frankfurt winger Filip Kostic this summer, despite the arrival of Ivan Perisic.

On Tuesday, Spurs announced the signing of Perisic on a free transfer from Inter Milan, with the 33-year-old putting pen to paper on a two-year contract.

The Croatia international was converted into a left wing-back with the Nerazzurri during his time under current Tottenham boss Antonio Conte, and he could feature regularly in this position under the Italian in North London.

Spurs target Kostic has also operated predominantly as a left wing-back this season with Frankfurt, and The Times reports that Conte is still keen to recruit the 29-year-old despite the addition of Perisic.

The report adds that Juventus and Inter Milan have also expressed their interest in Kostic, but the Serbia international would favour a move to Spurs now that they have qualified for the Champions League.

Kostic, who could be available for around £15m this summer, was a standout performer for Europa League champions Frankfurt in 2021-22, scoring seven goals and registering 15 assists in 43 appearances across all competitions.
