Tottenham Hotspur would have to pay £30 million to sign Pizzi from Benfica, the Daily Mail report.

A Bola claimed earlier this week that Tottenham have made contact with Benfica over signing the winger.

And the Mail now back up these claims by suggesting that Spurs could have an interest in the goalscoring midfielder.

Reports in Portugal suggested that Tottenham would have to pay around £18 million for the wide-man, but the Mail think he would be a more expensive addition than that.

At £30 million he may well be out of Tottenham’s price-range, especially as he has little re-sale value.

Pizzi is now 30, which may put Tottenham off spending big money on him, especially considering their limited budget.

If Daniel Levy can somehow negotiate the price down though, then Pizzi could be an appealing addition though.

The Portuguese international notched 18 goals last season for Benfica, and he could give Spurs even more firepower for the new campaign, if he was to join.
