Interesting piece of gossip here from our friends in Croatia courtesy of SN, who readers of a certain vintage may recall gave us a series of insightful articles on both the comings and goings of one Luka Modric.
The 2019 Croatian Cup Final between Dinamo Zagreb and Rijeka was played on 22 May 2019 in Pula, and Sportskih Novosti say that Totteham scouts were on hand to watch HNK Rijeka’s Ivan Lepinjica.
6,742 watched Zagreb lose by 1 goal to 3.
Apprently this is not the first time the 19 year old has been monitored by representatites from N17.
Ivan’s contract expires next year and one might suspect that the boy would be comparatively inexpensive, like somewhere between €5million and €10million inexpensive.
This is the Croatian’s second professional season, the midfielder has just 22 appearance to his name.
Nothing to get too excited about then, although this is more proof that the Spurs Academy isn’t the conveyor belt of talent it was marketed as.
