‘There is movement’ – Fabrizio Romano provides update on interest in Spurs-linked winger

Fabrizio Romano has claimed that a few clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, continue to hold an interest in Rennes winger Desire Doue.

Fabrizio Romano has delivered an update on interest in Desire Doue

Doue won plenty of admirers after breaking into the Rennes first-team last season, with the 19-year-old impressing with his bally carrying ability and inventive play.

The attacking midfielder, who is capable of playing in either flank, is thought to be hugely sought after, with a number of Premier League sides said to be keen on securing his services.

In fact, The Sun claimed on Sunday that Spurs and Chelsea are keen to finalise a deal to sign the 19-year-old by next week while Manchester United are also hot on the youngster’s trail.

The report alleged that Ange Postecoglou is a big fan of the teenager, who has allegedly been identified as a ‘top priority’ by the Lilywhites.

This update came after French journalist Abdellah Boulma revealed on Saturday that both Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain had expressed interest in the Rennes man.

Romano has now confirmed that the youngster is on Tottenham’s shortlist, revealing that Bayern have now contacted the player’s entourage.

Doue is a name to watch in the coming weeks

The journalist told GiveMeSport: “Bayern are one of the clubs that are monitoring Desire Doue, the talented winger of Rennes. He’s a very good player, a very big talent with many clubs interested in several countries – Paris Saint-Germain have been following the player, and Bayern have been in contact also with the people close to the player.

“Also, Tottenham have Desire Doue in their shortlist alongside other targets, and so many clubs are keeping close eyes on this player, because Doue could be one of the names to watch in the next few weeks.

“There is movement around the boy, his family have a big influence in the decision – but Doue is for sure in the list of these three clubs.

“We are waiting for one of them to make a move to understand what is going to happen on both the player’s side and the club’s side, because for Rennes he is a crucial player but there has been movement.”

Spurs Web Opinion

It appears that Tottenham have turned their attention to Doue after learning that a deal for Eberechi Eze could prove extremely complicated.

I would expect and hope for Spurs to potentially advance with an offer for the Rennes starlet over the next week or so, considering how close we now are to the squad jetting off to the far east.
