Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Galatasaray playmaker Gabriel Sara at the end of the season.
According to a report from CaughtOffside, the 26-year-old is open to returning to the Premier League, and Tottenham have already made initial contacts regarding a potential move. The playmaker could be available for a fee of €45 million in the summer, and it remains to be seen whether Spurs follow up on their interest with an offer to sign the player.
Spurs could use Gabriel Sara
They need more creativity and technical ability in the midfield, and the 26-year-old will help create goal-scoring opportunities by opening up deep defences with his passing and vision. The Brazilian has six goals and three assists to his name this season. He can operate in central midfield as well as in the number ten role.
The former Norwich City midfielder will feel that he has unfinished business in English football, and the opportunity to join Tottenham could be attractive for him. However, the North London club will have to secure safety in the Premier League first. They cannot hope to attract quality players playing in the second division next season.
Can Spurs convince Sara to join?
It has been a disappointing season for them, and they are fighting for survival in the Premier League. They have brought in Roberto De Zerbi as their new manager, and the Italian will be expected to guide them to save. He is a quality manager who has proven himself across multiple leagues. It remains to be seen whether he can help things around for Tottenham.
Sara is entering the peak years of his career, and this could be the right time for him to take on a new challenge. The move to the Premier League could be exciting for him, and regular football in England could help him improve further and fulfil his potential.
