Tottenham Hotspur’s search for a new playmaker has seen them linked with Rennes star Lovro Majer – and he has enjoyed a stunning performance.
Tottenham lack a real number 10 and have struggled for creativity since Christian Eriksen’s exit.
Homme du Match reported in November that Tottenham fancy signing Majer in 2022.
It’s suggested that Majer is a priority for Fabio Paratici and co, just months after he joined Dinamo Zagreb.
Majer has been compared to former Tottenham ace Luka Modric, and you can understand why.
The diminutive stature, the grace and creativity on the ball, even the headband – Majer looks like a Modric regen!
Tottenham target Majer shines in Rennes victory
Rennes were blistering on Sunday, beating Saint-Etienne 5-0 away from home.
Majer created the first two goals, setting up Gaetan Laborde with a defence-splitting pass before setting up Martin Terrier.
Majer added a third assist as he setup a screamer from Terrier.
This kind of guile is what Tottenham are looking for, and Majer has proven why Paratici wants him.
Rennes won’t sell Majer easily though, especially if the Tottenham target continues to shine this season.
