Mauricio Pochettino 'eyes Aaron Wan-Bissaka as Kieran Trippier replacement'

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino wants Crystal Palace right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka to replace Kieran Trippier and Serge Aurier, according to a report.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly looking to replace Kieran Trippier with Crystal Palace right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Spurs are expected to freshen up their squad in the summer after failing to bring in any new recruits over the past two transfer window.

According to the Evening Standard, as many as 12 players could make way at the end of the season, including England international Trippier.

The 28-year-old has been used 29 times in all competition this season, but he has himself admitted that his performances have not been good enough since his heroics in helping England to last year's World Cup semi-finals.

With Serge Aurier also expected to make way in the coming months, the report indicates that Mauricio Pochettino has set his sights on snapping up Wan-Bissaka from London rivals Palace to plug the gap.

The Eagles will not let Wan-Bissaka leave without a fight, but boss Roy Hodgson concedes that he may ultimately be powerless to stop him moving on if Spurs - or fellow big boys Manchester United - step forward with a big offer.
