5 players to keep an eye on in the Bundesliga Rückrunde

#2 Philipp Max (FC Augsburg)

Philipp Max could be an ideal replacement for Danny Rose at Tottenham Hotspur

By far the most impressive Bundesliga defender this season, Philipp Max is enjoying an incredible breakout season so far, which has alerted the likes of Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur.

The Augsburg fullback currently leads the charts for most assists with a stunning tally of ten assists. He has also made the most number of crosses as well as being far more effective on set pieces compared to last season, all of which are ideal traits for a Premier League full-back.

Tottenham Hotspur, in particular, could be keen on monitoring the performances of the 24-year-old following the rumours of Danny Rose potentially leaving the club in January.

Max, himself, will be keen to keep up his consistency throughout the season, which could force Germany national team coach Joachim Loew to consider him for the upcoming World Cup as a part of the defending champions' side later this year.
