Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Gelson Martins of Sporting Lisbon in the summer transfer window.
Chelsea, Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund are also claimed to be interested in the 22-year-old winger, who has been described by Clube Futebol Benfica president Domingos Estanislau as “the future Cristiano Ronaldo”, according to talkSPORT.
It seems that Spurs will face competition for the Portugal international winger, but there is no doubt that he would be a brilliant long-term signing for the North London outfit.
The 22-year-old winger is very quick, hugely talented and can get past players, assets which will excite the Spurs fans.
A brilliant dribbler with the footballer who is not shy on taking on opposition full-backs, Martins would be a sensational long-term signing for Spurs.
Martins has scored eight goals and provided seven assists in 26 league starts for Sporting so far this season, according to WhoScored.
Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino has proved just how good he is at improving young players, and he could take the Portugal international to the next level.
