Tottenham and Newcastle are both reportedly interested in Hull City forward Jarrod Bowen.
And several Spurs supporters are keen for the club to win the race for the free-scoring forward.
According to the Daily Mail, cited by The Spurs Web, the two sides, along with Arsenal and Aston Villa, are all keeping tabs on the 23-year-old.
The Athletic also back up Newcastle’s interest, claiming the Magpies have been ‘long-term admirers’ of Bowen.
However, when well-known Spurs reporter @RickSpur shared Tottenham’s interest, these Spurs fans were keen to see Bowen join Jose Mourinho’s side.

Twitter: @RickSpur @MailSport Yes, wouldn’t mind that signing. Much better than some of the dross we’ve been linked to lately (@Retro80sHusty)
Twitter: @RickSpur @MailSport Really really hope we get him (@_10kanee)
Read Newcastle verdict
The Athletic claim that Hull won’t listen to offers below £20 million for Bowen, and in our view, he could prove to be a steal at that sort of price.
Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish was one of the standout performers in the Championship last season and has excelled in the top flight this season, scoring seven goals and providing five assists in 21 league appearances.
We feel that Bowen could have a similar impact if he made the move to St James’ Park.
Steve Bruce’s side have scored just 20 goals in 23 league games this season, whereas Bowen has netted 16 of his own for the Tigers in the second tier, also providing six assists to take his goal involvement tally to 22.
At just 23, we feel he also has time to improve his impressive game even further, and at this stage of his career, looks ready to make the step up.
A move to Newcastle over Spurs, in our opinion, would see him gain more minutes on the pitch, while also having the chance to establish himself as a key man in Bruce’s side.
Spurs will have the lure of Champions League football should they firm up their interest, but for us, we feel that a move to Tyneside would be a sensible decision from Bowen.
