"Chelsea needs more depth in the left-back department and could compete with Marc Cucurella for the starting spot. More competition for places will help Chelsea improve as a team."
"On the other hand, Tottenham need a quality long-term replacement for Ben Davies. The Sporting CP star would be ideal for them. He could compete with Souza for the starting spot next season."
"The defender has a 69 million release clause in his contract, but he could be sold for half of that fee. It is highly unlikely any club will agree to trigger his release clause in the summer."
"The opportunity to join Chelsea or Tottenham could be exciting for the defender, and it remains to be seen where he ends up. The 26-year-old is at the peak of his career, and this is the right time for him to move to the Premier League."
Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are scouting Maxi Araujo of Sporting CP, who will play against Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. Both clubs have contacted Araujo's representatives and may make offers in the summer. Araujo, capable of playing as a left-back or left-sided winger, has 10 goal contributions this season. Chelsea seeks depth in the left-back position, while Tottenham needs a long-term replacement for Ben Davies. Araujo has a 69 million release clause but could be sold for less.
