Spurs boss Martin Jol is stepping up his search for young talent with Lyon striker Hatem Ben Arfa a reported summer target for Spurs. Although the youngster is only on the fringes of the Lyon side, following several injury problems, he is highly rated and has attracted interest from both Spain and Italy in the shape of Villareal and Juventus respectively.

He has been attracting attention ever since he helped the national side win the 2004 European Under-17 championship and Spurs are rumoured to have jumped to the front of the queue offering the youngster a three year deal.
