Spurs may turn attention to another PL star instead of Eberechi Eze – Journalist

Tottenham Hotspur have long been linked with a move for Eberechi Eze, but the situation surrounding the Crystal Palace star is complex. So, the Lilywhites could be ready to turn to a different Premier League winger instead.

Same price tag, simpler deal

Crystal Palace have been demanding at least £60m for Eze, with a release clause giving the Eagles a strong hand in negotiations.

However, Spurs have other options, and they may be ready to move on from Eze and pursue Pedro Neto, instead.

That’s according to Ben Jacobs, who told GiveMeSport: “Palace still want to hang on to Eze, and Spurs could instead turn their attention to Pedro Neto. Wolves are slightly more willing sellers at the right price, but there won’t be much difference in the ballpark fee.”

Jacobs claims the Eze deal would be “complicated,” but the good news for Spurs is that he would want to stay in London if he were to leave Palace.

Neto could be the new Spurs target

Meanwhile, Tottenham have had their eyes on Neto for a while, too. According to Graeme Bailey for Rousing the Kop, Spurs and Newcastle are interested in the Portuguese winger.

More recently, Sky Sports reporter, Michael Bridge, claimed Tottenham are looking to seal the signings of two attackers this summer: Neto, and Jonathan David from Lille.

It is thought Tottenham are looking for someone versatile to play across the front line for the upcoming season.

If Neto can put his injuries behind him, he would be a great signing. He’s more of an out-and-out winger than Eze, and on his day he’s an incredibly dangerous and highly creative player.

I could see us getting him for cheaper than Eze, too, but I do think Eze is a better all-round player. Either way, I would be pretty happy.
