Lyon's Bosnian playmaker Miralem Pjanic is in Tottenham's sights.
The People says Spurs boss Harry Redknapp sees Pjanic as a replacement for the want-away Luka Modric.
Spurs have approached the French giants and asked for first refusal on the £9million-rated 21-year-old who has been a hit for club and country.
Pjanic, similar to Modric in style, is rated one of the more accomplished creative players in French football.
And Lyon are prepared to cash in, so Harry Redknapp will have a chance if the worst happens with Modric.
