Tottenham are reportedly in for Ivan Perisic.
Tottenham Hotspur are set to step up interest in Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic.
Perisic is claimed to be available for 35 million Euros, Tuttomercatoweb report, with Spurs wanting to pay even less.
Last summer Perisic was valued at £70 million, estimated The Sun.
There is a reason his price tag has dropped so considerably, and for Tottenham, it’s a case of ‘buyer beware’.
Perisic’s reputation peaked last summer as he starred at the World Cup.
He netted an excellent goal in the final for Croatia, and it came on the back of a superb season for Inter Milan.
Perisic scored 11 times and provided 9 assists, following 11 goals and 8 assists in 2016/17.
This campaign he has been a big disappointment.
Perisic has only scored four goals and contributed two assists.
In two matches against Tottenham in the Champions League his only contribution was a yellow card.
Tottenham would be getting Perisic at a knock down price, but at what cost?
This season suggests he is on the decline, and has just turned 30-years-old.
Perisic may argue it is just a World Cup hangover, and perhaps he would be right.
Tottenham would be gambling that he can lift his game again on a short term basis.
