‘Would love this’- Some Spurs fans believe rumoured target would be ideal Dele Alli replacement

Some Spurs fans are excited to see rumours surface once again linking the club with a potential move to RB Leipzig midfielder Marcel Sabitzer, with many believing that he could be an ideal replacement for Dele Alli.

The Austrian international has been one of the most consistent performers in Julian Nagelsmann’s side in recent times.

He has not only shown tremendous versatility by being deployed in various positions across the midfield and frontline but has also displayed a tremendous knack of scoring important goals, as Tottenham found out to their detriment in the Champions League round of 16 tie last season.

The former Rapid Wien player was rumoured to be on Tottenham’s radar in the summer but he ended up staying put at the Red Bull Arena.

SportBILD (as relayed by Sport Witness), recently claimed earlier this week that this could be the midfielder’s last season at Leipzig since he is unlikely to pen a new contract, with Tottenham holding a keen interest in bringing him to England.
