Premier League
Tottenham Hotspur has set in motion its plans to strengthen its midfield for the upcoming season, and Johnny Cardoso is the top name on their priority list. The London club has the opportunity to secure his signing for 25 million euros thanks to a clause previously negotiated with Real Betis, granting them a preferential right over the American midfielder.
This special agreement originated last summer when the Spurs facilitated Giovani Lo Celso's return to Betis. As part of that negotiation, the English team secured an exclusive option to sign Cardoso at a fixed price, which now represents an unbeatable opportunity considering his excellent performance in LaLiga. Since his arrival in January, the midfielder has been a key player in the Verdiblanco scheme, attracting interest from other European clubs.
Tottenham doesn't forget about Cardoso
During the winter transfer window, Wolves tried to add him to their squad, but Betis rejected the offer, keeping the player at least until the end of the season. However, all signs point to his time in Spanish football coming to an end in the coming months, as Tottenham seems determined to activate the clause.
The special mechanism allowing his departure will be triggered on June 30 and will only be valid until July 10. If Spurs finalize the operation within that period, Betis would receive a significant profit, considering they signed him for just 6 million euros. Although a portion of the profit will have to be shared with Internacional de Brazil, the Verdiblancos would have resources to seek a suitable replacement.
