Spurs, Man Utd warned they're allowing world class talent slip through their hands

Dithering Premier League clubs have been warned they risk missing out on a future worldbeater in Alen Halilovic. The Dinamo Zagreb teen has been a long-term target for Manchester United, while Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has twice attempted to broker a deal this year with the Halilovic family.

Now, the midfielder is being linked with a move to Russia and CSKA Moscow and high-profile agent Nikky Vuksan remains convinced Halilovic is one of best young players Croatia has produced.

Vuksan, who placed Luka Modric at Tottenham, told tribalfootball.com: "In my opinion Halilovic is one of the biggest talents ever to come out of our region and country. That is all I can say about him."
