River Plate defender Lautaro Rivero has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
The 22-year-old central defender has performed well for the South American outfit and has been called up to the Argentina national team. The young defender has a €100 million release clause in his contract, and Premier League clubs such as Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, and Manchester City are interested in him.
It will be interesting to see if they are willing to make a move for him at the end of the season. The 22-year-old has all the tools to develop into a top-class defender, and he is on the radar of multiple clubs.
Spurs make their move for Lautaro Rivero
The report from Fichajes claims that Manchester United have taken the lead in the race to sign the player, but Tottenham have also made an enquiry for the South American.
Radu Dragusin has been linked with a move away from the North London club, and Tottenham will need to replace him. Signing the 22-year-old could prove to be a wise decision. He’s a young player with a lot of potential, and he could develop into a future star with the right guidance.
Premier League move could be ideal for Rivero
Tottenham will certainly hope that Cristian Romero can play a role in convincing his compatriot to join the club. The opportunity to move to England will be quite exciting for the player. It would be a major step up for him, and he would get to test himself at a high-level. Regular football in the Premier League could accelerate development and help him fulfil his potential.
It will be interesting to see where he ends up. Manchester United and Manchester City have looked vulnerable defensively and could use a quality central defender. The 22-year-old has the quality to improve all three clubs.
