Tottenham encouraged in bid for Southampton midfielder Schneiderlin

Tottenham remain in the hunt for Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin.

The Telegraph says Schneiderlin is very much Tottenham's first choice and head coach Mauricio Pochettino would guarantee the player first-team football, unlike Chelsea who have also scouted him.

Arsenal, another potential suitor, are looking elsewhere after the emergence of Francois Coquelin.

Spurs had a £10 million bid for Schneiderlin rejected last summer and would have to double that to tempt Southampton into cashing in.
