Aberdeen transfer target Tonio Teklic has been likened to Chelsea star Kai Havertz as the Dons get the lowdown on a potential summer recruit.
The Croatian midfielder is out of contract at FK Varazdin next year and the club are preparing to sell up their prize asset in fear of him leaving for free with Barry Robson's side said to be monitoring his progress. The 23-year-old has already told club chiefs he is heading for pastures new and the North East could be his next destination with Aberdeen leading the race, according to reports.
Teklic's former coach at top flight club Hajduk Split has been lavishing praise on the youngster and insists he has the tools to thrive in Scotland. The attacking playmaker has been handed the ultimate seal of approval by mentor Martin Rafelt who oversaw his progress over a year-and-a-half in his B team before he was plucked for Split's senior side.
