"Tottenham Hotspur may have been handed a timely boost in their pursuit of highly rated Brazilian teenager Rayan, after reports emerged that the 19-year-old has ended his relationship with super-agent Pini Zahavi ahead of the January transfer window. The development has sparked renewed optimism in north London that Spurs could strengthen their position in what is shaping up to be a fiercely competitive race for one of South America's most exciting young attacking talents."
"According to Spanish outlet Sport, Rayan's decision to part ways with Zahavi could significantly alter the dynamics of his next move. While Zahavi was representing the player, Barcelona were widely viewed as the frontrunners to land the Brazilian, largely due to the agent's strong connections with the Catalan giants. Barcelona were considered favourites to sign Rayan Barcelona's sporting director Deco was said to be in regular contact with Zahavi, and the club's long-standing relationship with the agent placed them in a favourable position."
Rayan, a 19-year-old Brazilian winger, has ended his relationship with super-agent Pini Zahavi ahead of the January transfer window. Zahavi's previous representation had favored Barcelona due to strong connections, including regular contact between Deco and the agent. With Zahavi no longer involved, that perceived advantage may have diminished and negotiations could become more balanced. Tottenham see the change as an opportunity to present their sporting project directly and have tracked Rayan as a long-term investment. Rayan is valued at around 50 million and is noted for pace, flair, composure in the final third, and willingness to assume responsibility in big moments.
