Tottenham in talks to sign Real Madrid midfielder Mateo Kovacic

Tottenham are looking to strengthen their midfield this summer and Mauricio Pochettino has identified Mateo Kovacic as a target.

The Croatian midfielder has not been a regular starter under Zinedine Zidane and Spurs are looking to offer him a way out. According to Daily Star, the 23-year-old is on top of Pochettino’s wish list and the Premier League outfit have already opened talks to sign him.

The Londoners are missing a metronome like Kovacic and he would bring some much needed tactical flexibility to Spurs.

The likes of Wanyama and Dembele have done well for Pochettino in a two man midfield.
