Ben Arfa - could be heading to White Hart LaneSpurs are in talks with Lyon about signing teenage winger Hatem Ben Arfa.
The 19-year-old has played only a handful of games for the Frech champions, but does have Champions League experience and has starred for France's youth sides.
Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas told the club's official website he had met with officials from Spurs, who are applying pressure to sign the pacy youngster.
Aulas said: "I saw the leaders of Tottenham are pressing hard to sign Hatem. It is necessary that we discuss it."
A move could be tied up well before next week's transfer deadline, with Aulas admitting talks are ongoing.
Tottenham have made no secret of their desire to sign a left-winger, with Stewart Downing constantly linked with a move to White Hart Lane from Middlesbrough, while Spurs missed out on Damien Duff who decided to join Newcastle from Chelsea.
