Tottenham Hotspur linked with RC Lens goalkeeper Robin Risser
Spurs could see Risser as someone to boost their goalkeeping department. He has caught the eye in Ligue with Lens over recent times. At the age of 21, he has bags of potential and will only get better in the future.
Risser, who is a France youth international, is looking to make his country’s squad for the World Cup later this year in USA, Canada and Mexico. He was snapped up by his current club last year and has since made their number one his own. The youngster has made 24 appearances in all competitions this season, 22 of which have come in the league.
The ‘keeper started his career at Strasbourg after joining them as a teenager from Colmar and he rose up through their ranks. However, he never played a competitive match for his previous team. Instead, he was shipped out on loan to Dijon and Red Star to get some experience under his belt and to boost his development.
What next for Tottenham Hotspur and Igor Tudor?
Spurs are back in action on Sunday with their trip to Fulham as they look to bounce back from losing to Arsenal. Speaking after their heavy defeat to Arsenal, caretaker boss Igor Tudor said: “It’s nice to understand where we are, because you prepare in the best possible way then there is the game to show you reality.
“So it’s nice from one point of view so each of us understand and come, as I said the players, stay quiet, they come on Tuesday and restart after these three or four training sessions to start to work harder than we did until now, to change our habits, to change the state of mind which is now as a team. It is the only way to work."
