According to a report by Fichajes, Tottenham are leading the race to sign the talented 26-year-old midfielder, Mendez, who has emerged as their top target. With an impressive record of five goals and five assists in various competitions this season, Mendez’s versatility allows him to excel in multiple positions such as central attacking midfielder, central midfielder, and winger. This adaptability and high-level performance make him a valuable addition to Tottenham.
In light of Ange Postecoglou’s need for more options in his squad, Mendez could prove to be a crucial player for Tottenham in the upcoming seasons. Currently sitting at the top of the league table, Tottenham aims to maintain their title challenge and strengthen their squad during the January transfer window. With Mendez valued at €30 million, Tottenham possesses the necessary financial resources to complete the deal.
The absence of key players like Manor Solomon and Ivan Perisic due to injuries creates an opportunity for Mendez to seamlessly slot in as a winger if required. Furthermore, he can also operate as the central attacking midfielder, allowing Tottenham to rotate important players like James Maddison. However, it remains to be seen if the deal can be finalized in the coming months.
