Tottenham have been strongly linked with a move for Rennes’ young attacker Desire Doue in recent weeks.
And the 19-year-old appears to have fuelled speculation about a potential move to North London by liking an Instagram post by Rising Ballers about Tottenham new signing Archie Gray.
Spurs are seriously considering a move for Doue, who is valued at around €30 million. This social media activity has intensified speculation that the player might be interested in joining Gray at Tottenham.

Spurs’ pursuit of Doue aligns with their strategy to bolster their squad with a versatile attacking talent.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed the club’s genuine interest in Doue, emphasising the board’s focus on securing his services.
Doue is highly regarded across Europe, with top clubs like Arsenal and Bayern Munich also expressing interest in the versatile attacker.
Primarily an attacking midfielder, Doue is also capable of playing on either wing or as a forward. His dribbling skills, acceleration, and pace make him an offensive threat.
In the previous season, Doue made 31 appearances in Ligue 1, scoring four goals and providing five assists in his 17 starts.
Tottenham are quite active in the transfer window with several targets identified. They announced their first signing yesterday, unveiling Archie Gray, a promising young talent from Leeds United.
The North London club have done early business in the last couple of transfer windows and it appears that they are following a similar strategy this summer.
