Tottenham Hotspur have joined Arsenal, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest in the race to sign Porto striker Samu Aghehowa, according to CaughtOffside.
The 21-year-old Spaniard has been one of Europe’s standout young forwards this season, scoring eight goals in ten appearances for the Portuguese giants.
Porto have set a €100 million release clause in his contract, but sources have reportedly told CaughtOffside that “financial pressures could soften their stance if a substantial bid is presented.”
Spurs sporting director Fabio Paratici is reportedly a strong admirer of Aghehowa’s “explosive pace and intelligent movement,” and the club is exploring a potential deal to bolster their attack with Dominic Solanke currently sidelined.
Arsenal and Nottingham Forest have also sent scouts to monitor the forward’s progress, while Newcastle remain interested after exploring a move earlier in the summer.
