Portuguese TV show, Mais Transferências has just revealed that Tottenham have tried to get a deal done for two Benfica players, but they have been unsuccessful.
Spurs have been looking to sign a new striker in this transfer window as they have previously suffered from an overreliance on Harry Kane.
The Lilywhites always suffer when their captain is unavailable to play and they want to avoid that in this campaign.
They are chasing four trophies as they look to end their wait to win silverware with Jose Mourinho in charge.
The report claims that the Special One has identified Carlos Vinícius as his striker target, but Spurs and Benfica were unable to get a deal done over his transfer.
It claims that Spurs won’t pay more than 30 million euros for him, however, the Portuguese side has demanded two times that amount.
The report then adds that Tottenham also enquired about taking Haris Seferović on loan for the season.
Mourinho has maintained that he is confident of landing a striker in this transfer window.
The Lilywhites have signed Gareth Bale on a season-long loan deal, the Welshman is a proven goalscorer, it remains unclear if Bale’s signing will make any difference to Tottenham’s plans to sign a striker.
2 Metre Wout instead of 3MP(3 Metre Peter)🙄 sorry
What’s 2MW ?
Looks a bit Crouchy does WWW he’ll be 2MW if he comes. I think Carlos Vinícius would be better though.
I heard the 2 from Benfica we were after was Vinícius & CH Dias.
Would be happy with those 2.
But Wout Weghorst also looks decent
& is not afraid to be back up even though he want to make Dutch squad for the Euros
My dead CAT is better than Vincent Janssen.
I WOUT Weghorst
Sign him up!
6’6″ giant who is a great presser, 4th best goalscorer in German league behind Lewandowski ,Timo Werner and J Sancho.A forward who can tackle is a rarity.
Is he better than Vincent Janssen??
Never heard of Haris new one on me.
