Tottenham Hotspur should consider a move for the Napoli midfielder.
Tottenham have defied the critics all season, after failing to sign a single player during the summer transfer window last year.
They currently sit in third spot in the Premier League table, just six points adrift of league leaders Liverpool, and they quite clearly are genuine challengers for the league title.
Mauricio Pochettino cannot afford to rest on his laurels, however, and he must look to bolster his ranks at Spurs over the next couple of transfer windows.
One particular area that requires attention is central midfield, with Mousa Dembele’s contract set to expire in the summer and Victor Wanyama facing an uncertain future in north London.
With this in mind, Tottenham should consider a move for Napoli ace Marko Rog this month.
The 23-year-old Croatian is a classy operator, and possesses all of the attributes needed in order to succeed under Pochettino’s intense regime.
Rog is a tenacious tackler, has bundles of energy, and possesses an exceptional range of passing.
He is also relatively experienced, in spite of his tender years, having made 190 appearances for club and country already.
Spurs really are in need of more quality in central midfield, especially if Dembele and Wanyama eventually leave as expected, and Rog could be just the ticket.
According to Calcio Mercato, Fiorentina are interested in signing the Napoli man, however, so Tottenham will need to move fast if they want to lure the Croatian to north London.
