Tottenham are one of the leading contenders to sign Stade Rennais sensation Desire Doue this summer.
The North London club seem to be quite focused on adding young stars to their squad as they look to prepare for the short as well as the long run. They have already added Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall to their squad and according to a report from L’Equipe, Tottenham are in pole position in the race for the services of Desire Doue.
The 19-year-old winger has had an exceptional rise at Stade Rennais. He has been a part of their first team since 2022 and has only gone from strength to strength. Last season, the teenage sensation had 10 goal contributions (4 goals, 6 assists) in his 43 outings. While he prefers playing out wide on the left, Doue is capable enough to feature in multiple attacking positions.
His huge potential along with his versatility have put him on the radar of Tottenham who have just entered the race for his signature. He could be a great fit for the North London club as he can add depth to the flanks as well as provide cover to James Maddison.
Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Chelsea are the other three clubs who have shown significant interest in him. All four clubs seem to be in a position to go on the offensive. Meanwhile, the German giants have already had a €35 million bid rejected by Stade Rennais who want €60 million for their star forward.
Tottenham might be one of the most advanced clubs in Doue’s pursuit but with the asking price quite high, there are no indications that Spurs would be willing to meet their demands.
