Tottenham prepare to make new bid for Brazilian defender

Tottenham are preparing to make a new offer to sign young Brazilian defender Arthur Díaz after Atlético rejected an initial bid from the English club and set their financial demands to part with the player.

TEAMtalk reported that Tottenham have made a €21 million offer for 80% of the economic rights of Díaz, but the Brazilian club quickly rejected it, demanding €30 million for the 19-year-old defender.

Tottenham have been monitoring Díaz for a while, having sent representatives to watch him, with a conviction that he has the potential to become one of the best defenders of his generation. Information suggests that the English club has promised to make new offers in the upcoming period.

Días is also admired by Carlo Ancelotti, the Brazil national team coach, who has received praise for the player, prompting the coaching staff to seek more information about him.

The defender, who stands 1.88 meters tall, has played 11 matches with Brazil's Under-20 team, winning the South American Championship. There are expectations for him to join the senior national team soon, which could increase the competition for his inclusion.
