Journalist Fernando Esquivel has disclosed that Club America rejected Tottenham’s bid for Sebastian Caceres; nonetheless, the North London team is anticipated to make another attempt to get the center defender.
The previous few weeks have seen a plethora of reports suggesting that the Spurs are planning to recruit a central defense in January, with Aceres reportedly being among the names at the top of the wishlist (90 minutes).
According to reports, Premier League scouts have seen the 24-year-old playing for Uruguay and have been greatly delighted by his performances (Football Insider).
Tottenham’s offer turned down for Cacares
The most recent report on Esquivel is that Club America rejected a deal from Spurs for the defender, who was given £3 million plus a percentage as a sell-on clause.
It is claimed that Caceres is valued at about £7 million by the Mexican side, but they would accept £5 million in addition to the suggested sell-on clause.
The reporter continues, saying Tottenham is still in talks about a deal and will likely launch another one soon.
With the prices being discussed, Tottenham will not lose anything even if Caceres struggles to adjust to life in the Premier League, making this a pretty risk-free acquisition.Thus, maybe the Lilywhites think it’s a risk worth taking.
