Tottenham Hotspur are being linked with an outrageous number of players right now, with Porto playmaker Vitinha believed to be on their radar.

The arrival of Fabio Paratici as director of football and appointment of Nuno Espirito Santo as manager have seen a real upturn in rumours surrounding Tottenham.

One new rumour emerged in Portugal just a matter of days ago, with Mercado Azul reporting that Tottenham fancy signing Vitinha.

Agent Jorge Mendes has allegedly offered Vitinha to Tottenham, seeking a reunion with Nuno having played under him at Wolverhampton Wanderers last season.

Vitinha only started five league games for Wolves last season having joined on loan from Porto, but did show his quality towards the end of the season.

The 21-year-old is primarily an attacking midfielder, and Nuno admitted earlier this year that Vitinha is ‘full of talent; and quality’.

Tottenham fans have now been reacting on Twitter to the rumours, urging the club to ‘bring him’ to North London.

Some called Vitinha ‘generational’ and a ‘baller’, seemingly believing that he would be a ‘lovely’ signing even if he isn’t a big name yet.
