Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Rennes winger Ismaila Sarr recently.

According to Calcio Mercato, Tottenham Hotspur are interested in snapping up Rennes winger Ismaila Sarr and he would be a frightening prospect in Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

Sarr has impressed in Ligue 1, where he has been one of the most dangerous attackers in the league.

The 20-year-old is blessed with searing pace, which makes him a threat to every defence in the division.

And if he was added to Tottenham’s squad, then he could help Pochettino’s side terrorise defences across the division.

Spurs already have some seriously dangerous attacking additions, with Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela both in fine form.

But Sarr would add even more pace to an already blisteringly quick Tottenham attack.

Sarr wouldn’t come cheap, so Spurs would have to pay up to bring the attacker in.

But he certainly could improve their attacking options, and if the chance to sign him becomes available in January, Pochettino should take it.
