Tottenham has made headlines with an ambitious bid to rebuild its offensive power by submitting an offer of 100 million euros to Real Madrid in pursuit of Brazilian winger Rodrigo Goes.
As reported by Fichajes, the Premier League club is trying to make a big splash in the transfer market after the club’s legendary son Heung-Min leaves.
The son’s surprise switch to Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer left a big gap at the forefront of Thomas Frank.
In front of Korea, long-time fan favorite and one of the Spurs’ most consistent performers leaves a big booty behind. In response, Tottenham targets players of equal pedigree, with two-time Champions League winner Rodrigo, who was only 24 years old.
Rodrigo faces an uncertain future in Real Madrid
With the arrival of Kylian Mbappe and Endrick, speculation about Rodrygo’s future is beginning to grow as the forward line is becoming even more crowded, and Tottenham wants to capitalize on the uncertainty.
Despite Spurs’ large bids, trading is not easy. The report shows that Rodrigo is reluctant to make the switch and views Tottenham as a potential step in his career.
The Brazilian is believed to be refraining from offerings from clubs that are likely to compete for stronger Champions League qualifications and key silverware.
Tottenham gives a big buck to the Real Madrid star
Real Madrid has not yet officially responded to Tottenham’s reported bids, but the fees are expected to approach an internal rating.
However, with player approval still at issue, the Spurs could face a difficult fight to convince Rodrigo that Rodrigo is the right next step in his career.
The move shows Tottenham’s willingness to spend heavily on doing so in the Postson era.
