Tottenham Hotspur are said to be considering paying £87 million for Sporting’s Bruno Fernandes.
Spurs are on the hunt for potential new signings ahead of the summer transfer window, and Fernandes is said to be on their wishlist.
The Portuguese attacking midfielder has caught the eye with Sporting this season.
Fernandes has scored 13 goals and claimed 16 assists across all competitions for Sporting.
Tottenham are now ready to make a bid for Fernandes, but getting a deal over the line could be tough.
Sporting are said to be demanding an eye watering £87 million for Fernandes, which surely puts him beyond Spurs’ price range.
Tottenham have attempted to avoid paying huge money for any additions they have made in recent times, and spending big of Fernandes would require a huge change in policy.
If Fernandes was brought to Tottenham he would be in competition with the likes of Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli for a first-team place.
