Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are locked in a battle with two unnamed clubs for Rennes star Desire Doue this summer.
The race for Doue’s signature seems to be heating up, with the 19-year-old French starlet now widely being backed to make a big move this summer on the back of his impressive breakthrough season.
Romano brings the latest update on the matter, revealing on his YouTube channel that Tottenham are one of three clubs plotting a move for the versatile attacking midfielder.
The journalist says that the battle for the teenager’s signature could heat up over the coming weeks, remarking that his situation is now ‘one to watch’.
Romano further adds that the Rennes starlet’s family will have a big influence on where he ends up this summer.
This update comes on the back of French journalist Abdellah Boulma’s revelation over the weekend that both Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are keen on securing Doue.
GiveMeSport had reported last week that Tottenham had already reached out to the youngster’s representatives over a move and that Rennes could demand as much as £60m for the France Under-21 international.

If PSG are expressing a keen interest, one would expect them to have an advantage over other suitors in the race as Doue and his family would likely prefer the option of staying in France.
It is up to Spurs and Postecoglou to make a persuasive case to the youngster that his development would be best served in North London.
