There may be questions over Jose Mourinho's future, but Spurs' recruitment staff feel that the Turkey international is a player who can help them moving forward, regardless of who is in charge.
It's suggested that Spurs have already been in contact with Kokcu's representatives to register their interest and will look to receive updates on his future. Work permit regulations shouldn't hinder the deal, as the midfielder is a regular for Feyenoord and also represents his national team.
A return of three goals and two assists this season might not sound like much, but the youngster has stood out at times for Feyenoord. He featured in the Eredivisie Team of the Month for February and March, also being awarded Young Player of the Month last month.
He has had a number of eye-catching performances, especially enjoying himself during a 6-0 victory over VVV Venlo. It now seems as though the he will have two options if he wants to continue his development in North London.

21.29 BST: West Ham badly need another striker, with the club having sold Sebastian Haller in January, and Michail Antonio in-and-out of the lineup with various muscle injuries.
Eurosport claims one potential arrival could be Chelsea's Tammy Abraham. The 23-year-old is currently buried down the depth chart under Thomas Tuchel despite a pretty impressive goal record over the last two seasons: 30 goals in 51 games.
Abraham looks like a player who will soon be playing elsewhere and if West Ham were to qualify for the Champions League, the young England international would be an exciting and feasible target for David Moyes and Co.
20.47 BST: Barcelona are reportedly working to negotiate a new deal with phenom Pedri.
With the 18-year-old starting to garner interest from clubs around the world, including Liverpool, Barcelona are keen to tie down their biggest prospect long-term. Pedri currently has a year left on his deal (with an option for a further two) and a £70 million release clause, but Barcelona are keen to stave off the competition by negotiating a more prohibitive release clause.
The report says that a deal could be a four-year deal with a release clause in the vicinity of £350 million!
20.00 BST: Man United have been linked heavily with a move for Real Madrid's Raphael Varane, but could Madrid's El Clasico rivals Barcelona provide an alternative?
The Manchester Evening News speculates that Samuel Umtiti could be a cheaper Plan B for the Red Devils, with Barcelona widely expected to make the 27-year-old available. The World Cup winner has played just 10 times in La Liga under Ronald Koeman, and would likely cost a fraction of the reported £40 million Madrid are asking for Varane.
While Umtiti's form has dipped a bit over the last season-plus, Man United could turn to a reclamation project in order to save a few bucks.
