Transfer Talk: Raphinha and Neto top Spurs' summer shopping list
Tottenham are considering a move for Barcelona winger Raphinha or Wolves star Pedro Neto in the summer.
Ex-Leeds man Raphinha has made 15 LaLiga appearances for Xavi's side this season, scoring three goals and grabbing five assists.
But the 27-year-old could be heading back to the Premier League at the end of the campaign if Spurs are willing to pay their £60million asking price.
Transfer guru Paul O'Keefe reveals that Ange Postecoglou already knows what type of player he wants to sign in the summer and a dangerous, direct dribbler is one of the priorities.
O'Keefe believes Neto is another talent Spurs are tracking but they will likely face stiffer competition for the Wolves man.
The 23-year-old Portugal international has been a key player for Gary O'Neil this season and is third in the Premier League assist charts with eight — behind only Kieran Trippier and Ollie Watkins.
Spurs are reportedly yet to make a final decision on the individual they will pursue in the summer but it seems the funds are there to back Postecoglou as he continues his rebuild in North London.
As with Raphinha, Neto will cost a hefty sum with the pair being contracted to their clubs until 2027.
But having sanctioned a move for Harry Kane last summer, Spurs should be in a position to make a splash in the market.
