Tottenham Hotspur could turn to the South American market again to solve their issues at full-back, as they set their sights on a young Argentine starlet.Spurs signed highly-rated young left-back Souza from Santos back in January of this year, and even though the left-back has struggled to get opportunities on loan at Porto, the 20-year-old remains highly rated by Tottenham.The Lilywhites now have an issue to solve at right-back, having failed to sign a replacement for Djed Spence in the summer, with De Zerbi using Archie Gray as Pedro Porro’s cover in the role.Additionally, Porto’s representatives are thought to be in communication with Barcelona ahead of January, and the North Londoners may turn to another youngster from Brazilian football to solve the problem.Photo by Riquelve Nata/Sports Press Photo/Getty ImagesTottenham batting Atletico Madrid and Napoli for Palmeiras defender Agustin GiayAccording to Fichajes, Palmeiras defender Agustin Giay has caught the eye of several big European sides in light of his consistent displays over the last 12 months.The report says that Tottenham Hotspur, Atletico Madrid and Napoli are the three sides that are showing serious interest in taking the Argentine starlet to Europe in the winter.It is made clear that Spurs see Giay as a rotational option with Porro, thus enabling Gray to compete for a midfield space. Atletico’s interest in the player is being driven by Diego Simeone, who is a big fan of the 22-year-old.In fact, the La Liga club have held long-term interest in the right-back, having even failed with an offer to sign him when he was at San Lorenzo.Napoli have identified Giay as a potential replacement for Giovanni Di Lorenzo, and the Serie A club’s €13m (£10.8m) offer for the youngster was turned down by Palmeiras in the summer.Palmeiras’ stance and valuation of Giay revealedFichajes say that the Brazilian club took a hardline stance on the right-back in the summer, but they are committed to selling him in January after he features in the Copa Libertadores final on November 28.However, Giay will not come cheap, with Palmeiras only willing to start negotiations at a minimum price of €25m (£20.8m).The 22-year-old has also received offers from the Saudi Pro League and interest from AC Milan, but his representatives are focusing on interest from Naples, London and Madrid.StatisticAgustín GiayPedro PorroArchie GrayClubPalmeirasTottenhamTottenhamLeagueBrasileirão 2025PL 25/26PL 25/26Appearances293424Minutes1,9722,7991,480Goals012Assists022Goal contributions034Yellow cards1105Red cards000READ MORE: Napoli see Tottenham’s £37.3m Mathys Tel as ‘ideal’ signing, but De Zerbi loves himThe post Tottenham fight Atletico Madrid to sign £20.8m Argentine defender as Pedro Porro back-up appeared first on Spurs Web.
