Tottenham target goalkeepers as transfer window opens
Scott Loach, whose errors contributed to England's 4-0 defeat in the Uefa Under-21 final defeat by Germany, is regarded as a potential first-choice for the future at White Hart Lane.
And Eldin Jakupovic, the Lokomotiv Moscow and Switzerland goalkeeper, has also been linked with a move to Spurs.
Harry Redknapp is rumoured to be prepared to spend £6 million for Loach, a fee that could not be ignored by impoverished Watford.
The Nottingham-born goalkeeper began with Ipswich Town's academy before spending time with Southwell United and Lincoln City, who he joined at the age of 15.
During his time at Lincoln he had work experience at Bourne Town, Radcliffe Olympic, Boston Town, Spalding, Stamford and Lincoln United. He joined Watford in 2006 for £50,000 and has made 31 appearances.
Jakupovic is owned by Lokomotiv Moscow but spent all of last season on loan in his native country at Grasshopper Zurich, where he started his career.
The 6 ft 3in keeper is valued at around £1.7m as he is is contracted to the Russian club only until the end of the Russian 2010 season.
Gomes was under pressure when Redknapp arrived at Spurs. The manager even signed Carlo Cudicini, from Chelsea, but Gomes' rise in confidence meant that the Italian spent most of the season on the bench.
With Cudicini 36 in September, Redknapp is looking to recruit a younger goalkeeper and Loach, still only 21, and Jakupovic, 24, fit that bill.
