Dabo confirms Spurs whispers

FRENCH midfielder Ousmane Dabo has confirmed that he has heard Tottenham are interested in bringing him to England, although he has not received any offers.

Both Spurs and Blackburn Rovers are believed to be chasing the Atalanta ace, who is now looking to leave Italy following the club's dramatic relegation from Serie A.

Atalanta lost in a play-off against Reggina to be condemned to life in Serie B, and Dabo is keen to get out.

The former Rennes ace has already said that he would like to play in England, and Tottenham and Blackburn are having a look at him.

Dabo now says that he has heard of interest from White Hart Lane, but will not know more until he has talked with his agent.

"For the moment I don't have any information," admitted Dabo.

"I heard talk about Tottenham, but I can't say anything else. I will talk with my agents."

Dabo has recently been called into Jacques Santini's French national squad, and knows that his international career will be boosted should he perform well in The Premiership.
