ANGE POSTECOGLOU sent Tottenham’s top spy Ian Broomfield to Scotland on a four-day scouting mission.

Spurs’ boss wants an up-to-date dossier on talent north of the border, where he dominated with Celtic.

Postecoglou is happy for his scouting staff to check on players he fancies — including some at his old club.

Broomfield saw Celtic striker Kyogo Furuhashi fire a rare blank and also took in games featuring Aberdeen, Rangers and Hearts.

Dons’ Slobodan Rubezic caught the eye and the Montenegro centre-half is making an impact in his first SPFL season.

Furuhashi has been explosive for the Scottish side since joining from Vissel Kobel.

Celtic paid a bargain £4.5million to secure his services in 2021.

Across three season, he has plundered 61 goals in just 98 games.

While Rubezic was signed in July for an undisclosed fee, but has appeared uncompromising in his seven league games for the club.

Spurs have had a dream start under new Postecoglou.

The club are unbeaten, and have enjoyed time at the top of the table.

Tottenham take on Chelsea on Monday, looking to go back top after Man City’s 6-1 win on Saturday took them above their rivals.
