Tottenham and Liverpool want to sign a Brazilian wonderkid this summer
Tottenham Hotspur have been long-term admirers of a young Brazilian forward and are sensing an opportunity to pounce on him this summer, but they will have to overcome competition from a number of other English sides to secure the teenager.
Spurs have had decent success with their transfer strategy of signing young, up-and-coming players, with the likes of Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray well on their way to becoming top-class performers.
It thus comes as no surprise to hear that Tottenham are set to continue with the same approach, with the club now setting their sights on an 18-year-old Brazilian who has been turning plenty of heads over the last two years.
The player in question is Vasco Da Gama starlet Rayan, who is now subject to interest from the Lilywhites as well as many of their rivals.
Transfer race intensifying for Tottenham target Rayan
TBR Football say that Rayan’s impressive displays for Vasco Da Gama have now brought him to the attention of a number of Premier League sides, who are now exploring moves for him ahead of the 2025-26 season.
This includes Tottenham Hotspur, who are big fans of the versatile forward, with the North London club being joined in the race for the player by Liverpool, Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
All of these sides have shown ‘a genuine interest’ in the teenager ahead of the summer, and the publication adds that the forward now looks set for a move to England this summer.
Tottenham have been fans of Rayan for a long time
The report goes on to explain that out of these sides, it is Spurs and Liverpool who have been on Rayan’s trail the longest.
Both clubs have reportedly been keeping an eye on the young forward’s development since he was 16 and are now ready to push ahead with a move for him.
The outlet asserts that even though Rayan has snubbed plenty of interest from Europe in the past, a move to England is now looking ‘increasingly likely’ for the player in 2025.
