Report: Spurs ready to offer £30million for Portuguese star

Tottenham Hotspur are ready to try and prise Ricardo Pereira away from Leicester City in the January transfer window.

The Express claims that Spurs are ready to offer £30million for the Foxes right-back who is also attracting interest from French giants Paris Saint-Germain.

Spurs head coach Jose Mourinho is said to be a huge admirer of his compatriot who was named as Leicester City’s Player of the Season and Players’ Player of the Season following his first impressive campaign for the Foxes in 2019/19.

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has already insisted that no member of his squad will depart the KP Stadium this month.

While Spurs face a battle to make the top four this season, Leicester are currently in the lofty position of second in the table.

Opinion

Spurs have struggled to replace not only Kyle Walker, but also Kieran Trippier. Serge Aurier continues to prove that he is a liability while Kyle Walker-Peters has barely been given the opportunity to challenge for the position.
