Monaco are interested in signing Tottenham defender Serge Aurier this summer.
Monaco's recruitment is now overseen by Paul Mitchell - once of Spurs himself - after he joined from RB Leipzig last month, and he is said to be keen on bringing in the Ivory Coast international.

Fingers crossed.
Yes, I support all our players, but he's a liability.

He's actually improving of late, wouldn't mind him gone as long as we get a better replacement.

I grew up watching Spurs in the 90s where there was so little to get excited by that watching an adventurous full back felt like a trophy win, and that bias has stayed with me. I'll forgive a Carr, Chimbonda, Hutton and Aurier for their shortcomings more than I would a dependable one like Lee, Corluka, Taricco or Davies. Having said that we need to replace him, and we really need a CB and a LB too. It's almost essential at this stage.

On form he is pretty decent but not consistent enough. Is he better than Ben Davies on the left YES/NO.

That says it all.

He'll never improve with coaching, he just doesn't get "shape" or "positioning". The other night he was trying to get the ball from their player 25 yds from goal by going around him and not staying goal side. Unbelievable having just played 20 games in a row.

The Mirror (I feel dirty just typing that) report that Milan are also interested, with the price around £35mil (via SSN).

Absolutely no way we’re getting that sort of cash for Serge (no offence to the lad).
