Tottenham Hotspur fans want their club to move for Nabil Fekir after his move to Liverpool collapsed.
After seeming like a foregone conclusion, Nabil Fekir’s team next season remains a mystery.
Lyon dug their heels in at the weekend and blocked his move to Liverpool, BBC Sport reported.
But with the transfer window only just opened and the World Cup yet to start, there is plenty more room left for manouvre regarding Fekir’s future.
Liverpool may not be the only players, with his previously rumoured availability likely to have alerted their Premier League and international rivals.
Tottenham fans were disappointed at their own club’s lack of ambition last week when Fekir seemed set for a move to Anfield… now they are calling for chairman Daniel Levy to bring him to North London.
The calls are with a dual purpose, one, because Fekir would make Tottenham and even more dangerous team, and two, due to the recently elevated rivalry with Liverpool after star men Harry Kane and Mohamed Salah battled for the Golden Boot last season.
Tottenham would have to commit a club record spend to land Fekir, and dealing with Lyon chairman Jean Michel Aulas is far from easy, as Liverpool have just found out.
Daniel Levy has done it before when he managed to sign Hugo Lloris in 2012, and then in 2015 when they snapped up Clinton N’Jie.
