Tottenham are in negotiations with a highly regarded Argentine striker.
The 19-year-old Argentina youth international caught the eye for Rosario and his country at the recent Under-20 World Cup and would cost Spurs approximately £12 million, according to reports in Argentina.
Veliz, who stands over six feet tall, has 11 goals in 23 league games so far this season. Several Premier League clubs, most notably Brighton, have had significant success in the South American market in recent seasons, with players like as Moises Caicedo and Julian Alvarez.

Spurs are also looking to offload players and are open to offers for Hugo Lloris, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Tanguy Ndombele and Bryan Gil, among others, although Gil is expected to be sidelined for around two months following groin surgery which may limit him to a loan move.
The club’s summer business is being led by chairman Daniel Levy, Postecoglou, and chief scout Leonardo Gabbanini, with Spurs still actively looking for a new director of football and no start date for incoming chief football officer, Scott Munn, yet to be announced.
