Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Athletico PR’s Vitor Roque in recent months.

Back in April, one report claimed that Spurs were among the interested parties for the Brazilian forward.

As well at Tottenham, the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal are apparently in pursuit.

More recently, it looked as though Spurs were set to lose out on Roque to Barcelona.

However, a new report from Mundo Deportivo has suggested that the race could become wide open again.

Obviously this could see Tottenham get another chance to sign a player they have risked missing out on.

Indeed, Spurs – and the other aforementioned suitors – are apparently willing to travel to Brazil to complete the signing.

They would all offer ‘better guarantees’ than Barca and would treble Roque’s salary, added the report.

Barca and Athletico had reportedly agreed a move worth around €55m (£47m) in total.

This is composed of a €30m initial payment, €20m in add-ons, and a €5m bonus for winning the Ballon d’Or.Barcelona handed Vitor Roque transfer ultimatum by Athletico Paranaense -  Barca Blaugranes

Obviously if the move falls through, they may well have to go back to the drawing board with a new club.
