Tottenham have been linked with several players this summer, with Rennes’ Desire Doue among the top prospects.
Spurs are being strongly favoured to secure Doue’s signing despite stiff competition from Bayern Munich and PSG.
Club insider John Wenham has voiced his confidence that the Lilywhites can outmanoeuvre their rivals to land the young talent.
The 19-year-old Doue has garnered interest from numerous elite European clubs. His versatility and skills make him an exceptional asset, capable of playing as an attacking midfielder or on either wing.
In the last Ligue 1 season, Doue made 31 appearances, scored four goals, and provided five assists in his 17 starts, showcasing his potential to be a significant addition to any top team. (Transfermarkt)
Wenham highlighted that the highly-rated attacker would be an exciting addition to the squad, perfectly aligning with Spurs’ strategy of signing promising young talents.
Speaking exclusively to Tottenham News, Wenham emphasised the club’s recent success in attracting top young players, such as Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall.
He also noted that despite strong interest from other major clubs, Tottenham successfully signed players like Luka Vuskovic and Radu Dragusin, demonstrating their capability to convince top talent to join the North London side.
Wenham said:
“I think this signing would fit in with the obvious strategy at the club of signing the most exciting young talent around.
“The likes of Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall have been signed, and Doué would add to that list.
“He is heavily linked to Munich and PSG. However, to Spurs’ credit, so was Luka Vušković, and so was Radu Drăgușin.
“They managed to do those deals and convince the players that they were the club to join, so why can’t they do it again?”
Tottenham’s recent track record of securing promising young players adds credibility to Wenham’s optimism.
