Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing the Benfica midfielder Florentino Luis at the end of the season.
A report from 90min claims that the Premier League club recently sent scouts to watch the 23-year-old defensive midfielder in action for Benfica last Friday.
The midfielder has been linked with other Premier League clubs as well and Tottenham will have to face competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool.
Antonio Conte needs to bring in another quality defensive midfielder so that he can rotate players like Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg more often.
Luis has the potential to develop into a quality Premier League midfielder and working under a world-class coach like Conte could help him improve further and fulfill his potential.
The tough-tackling Benfica midfielder has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to submit an official offer for him at the end of the season.
The opportunity to move to the Premier League is likely to be an attractive option for the youngster and he will be tempted to make the switch at the end of the season.
However, Benfica can be a difficult club to negotiate with and they are likely to demand a premium for their prized prospect.
A move to the Premier League would be the ideal next step in Luis’ career and playing against top players in England could accelerate his growth as a player.
