#3 - Andre Gomes to Tottenham

Off to Spurs?

In what could be the loan deal of the summer in the Premier League, Tottenham are close to signing Andre Gomes from Barcelona according to various reports.

The Portuguese midfielder was signed by Barcelona last summer but has failed to impress. Ernesto Valverde is not keen on keeping him at the club and is said to be forcing the player to move.

Tottenham and West Ham United were leading the race but its Spurs who offered a better package and are more 'suited' for him.

Gomes is also said to be keen on joining Tottenham as it's the season before the world cup and sitting on the bench at Camp Nou would not help him get a place in the Portugal squad.
