Tottenham are reportedly lining up a move for Croatia wide-man Danijel Pranjic.

The 26-year-old currently plays for Dutch side Heerenveen, and has scored six goals so far this season.

Spurs are on the lookout for left-sided options after missing out on Middlesbrough's Stewart Downing in January.

Pranjic could be the man Juande Ramos turns to after his scouting team brought back glowing reports about the winger, who played in Croatia's 3-2 win over England at Wembley.

Pranjic has nine caps to his name but has only recently become a regular under Slaven Bilic - who looks set to use him a wing-back in order to utilise his attacking abilities from a deep position.

A White Hart Lane delegation travelled to the recent Croatia-Scotland clash as Ramos was keen to see the player in a British-style match and Pranjic impressed as he went up against current Spurs ace Alan Hutton.

Now Croatian media reports claim Spurs have made contact with Heerenveen about concluding a deal for the end of the season.

However, with Pranjic ready to feature at the Euro 2008 finals, the Dutch club are looking to keep him until later in the summer when his stock could very well rise if he performs well in Austria and Switzerland.

Weekend reports also saw Spurs linked with a renewed interest in Middlesbrough's Adam Johnson.

With Downing signing a new deal on Teesside, Spurs could try again for his understudy, whose chances at The Riverside are severely hampered by the presence of the England star.
