Tottenham Hotspur is considering a bid for Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes as they explore alternatives to Conor Gallagher. Despite Gallagher being their top choice for January, his preference is to stay at Chelsea and his transfer would require a significant fee of around £50m.
In light of this, Tottenham is now looking at other options, with reports suggesting that Joao Gomes is a realistic target for the club. It is rumored that they are preparing a bid of around £30m for the midfielder, which would result in a profit for Wolves as they had paid £16m for him.
Although Gomes is an important player for Wolves, it is understood that they are not desperate to sell him at the moment. However, Tottenham is determined to secure a midfielder and, with the Gallagher deal becoming more challenging, Gomes seems like a viable alternative.
If a deal for Gomes goes through, Flamengo will receive a sell-on fee. For Tottenham fans, Gomes could be a late addition to the squad as the club is seemingly giving the Gallagher deal every chance before making a decision. Gomes is an experienced player who could seamlessly fit into Tottenham’s starting lineup and has been praised by Gary O’Neil, making him a promising prospect for the club.
