"Tottenham are preparing an improved offer for Santos star Souza. The North London club saw their initial offer worth 10m (8m) turned down for Souza, but they remain keen on signing him. Santos are asking for a fee in the region of 20m and as per the latest from AS journalist Eduardo Burgos, Tottenham are prepared to pay the asking price."
"As per Eduardo, the player is open to signing for Tottenham'. He likes the option of playing in the Premier League and living in London, in addition to the sports project they present to him. Reliable journalist Ben Jacobs also reiterated Eduardo's information, stating that the 19-year-old is keen on a move away this January with several clubs showing interest including Italian giants AC Milan. Newcastle have also been linked with the player, however, Jacobs believes those reports are far from the truth."
Tottenham plan to submit an improved offer to Santos for 19-year-old full-back Souza after an initial €8m bid was rejected. Santos are asking around €20m and Tottenham are prepared to pay that fee. Souza is reportedly open to a move to the Premier League and to living in London, and several European clubs including AC Milan have shown interest. Newcastle are not involved in the transfer at this stage. Tottenham want reinforcements at left-back because Destiny Udogie is sidelined with a hamstring injury and Djed Spence has been covering the position temporarily. Souza is a product of the Santos academy.
