Image for Tottenham Hotspur: Fans erupt over transfer links to Croatian ace

Ahead of the January transfer window, Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Stade Rennais midfield star Lovro Majer as Antonio Conte looks to strengthen his squad.

According to Homme du Match, Spurs are currently the front runners in the race for Stade Rennais midfielder Lovro Majer with the report also outlining that Manchester United and Bayern Munich are interested in securing Majer’s signature.

The report also reveals that while the midfielder is unlikely to leave during the January transfer window, he could well be on the move next summer.

Will Levy back Conte in January?

Yes

Yes

No

No

The links linking the north London club to the Croatian international has subsequently seen Spurs fans take to Twitter.

What did these Spurs fans make of the transfer link?

“We’d be a stepping stone for him like Modric”

@THFCRoss_

“Conte is gonna walk at the end of the season lol I might have to retire from the game this isn’t worth it anymore”

@lxstlosty

“I just hope we do our homework on whoever we bring in. We can’t afford to have more poor recruitment. I don’t care if there not big name players as long as they have the right mentality and ability”

@Craig1_COYS

“Shown glimpses of excellence for Rennes but not consistent enough atm”

@SpudsOfficial

“Kill me now”

@NStampar

The 23-year-old star, who already has one goal and one assist in six Ligue 1 outings so far this campaign, only joined Rennes for approximately €15m (£12.6m) over the summer.

After Thursday’s dismal defeat to Slovenian minnows Mura in the Europa Conference League, midfiels stars Dele Alli and Tanguy Ndombele are arguably one step closer to leaving the club next summer if not during the January Transfer window, so a move for the creative and dimunitive Croatian star could prove to be an incrediby astute one by Antonio Conte.
