Tottenham Hotspur defender Pedro Polo has linked his move from the club in recent months, and the London club has decided to sell him at a reasonable price.
According to Fichajes, they sanction his exit with a fee of around 60 million euros. The report claims Barcelona is interested in Spanish fullbacks. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.
Can Barcelona afford the Pedro Polo?
Barcelona has been experiencing financial difficulties and it could prove difficult to pay 60 million euros to Polo. Meanwhile, Manchester City and Bayern Munich are also keeping an eye on his situation.
Polo has been a standout for Tottenham since joining the club, and losing him would be a devastating blow. It’s very surprising that Tottenham is ready to sell him in the summer. They are expected to lose Christian Romero, who is on the radar of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Losing two best defenders in one window can be a big problem for them.
It is still unknown how the situation will develop. The asking price seems reasonable for players of his quality.
Polo could help improve Barcelona
Polo is one of the best fullbacks in the Premier League and has all the attributes to develop into a top-class player.
If he joined the club, he could have sorted out Barcelona’s right-back division in the near future. The opportunity to move to his hometown can be extremely exciting for the defender. Also, Barcelona is one of the largest clubs in the world and the opportunity to play for them is extremely exciting.
They’ve been well placed to win the La Liga this season, and attracting top players isn’t difficult for them. It will be interesting to see if they can arrange funds to get the deal done.
