Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of Torino defender Bremer is ramping up, with Spurs allegedly prepared to pay more than anybody else for him.

Torino-based website Torino Granata report that it is becoming increasingly difficult for Torino to keep hold of Bremer.

They suggest that Tottenham are above all in the race to sign Bremer with Antonio Conte thought to be keen.

Tottenham are allegedly willing to pay at least €20million (£17million) for Bremer, which is what Torino are seeking.

Tottenham are described as being ‘insistent’ on a deal for Bremer, hoping to win the race for his signature.

Who is Tottenham target Bremer?

Bremer, 24, emerged in Brazil with Atletico Mineiro and was snapped up by Torino in 2018.

Now one of the top defenders in Italy, Bremer actually has a decent goal record too with 12 goals in 92 games.

The Brazilian has been branded the best defender in Serie A, thanks to his incredible stats for ball recoveries.

Quick, strong and aggressive, Bremer could feature next to Cristian Romero on the right side of Conte’s back three at Tottenham.

Liverpool are keen too according to Radio Itatiaia in Brazil, but Tottenham look like Bremer’s most likely destination now.

Bremer isn’t a big name yet, but he is showing huge potential in Italy and could be a shrewd addition for Tottenham.
