Tottenham could sign Piero Hincapie for 34 million pounds

According to Christian Falk, Tottenham Hotspur could have the chance to sign Bayer Leverkusen centre-back Piero Hincapie for £34m this summer.

The London giants have been long time admirers of Hincapie and looked at the possibility of signing him last year. They have remained linked to his services and falk claims it could be available at a low price during the summer transfer window.

speaking to Caught offside, falk saying: “So far, the league leaders have a strong team from positions 1 to 18. If Jonathan Tah stays, another central defender may want to leave to play for another club.”

“Piero Hincapié (22). The Ecuadorian is being courted by English clubs such as Tottenham. Transfer fee: at least 40 million euros, which Simón Rolfes and Xabi Alonso could immediately invest in the new team.”

quality player

Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has trusted Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven as his preferred centre-back duo, but will want more quality to cover possible injuries next season.

Radu Dragusin arrived from Genoa last summer and Hincapie would be another quality signing. The Ecuadorian has had a difficult start to the season, but he has been a regular starter since New Year's.

The 22-year-old has had a 92% passing accuracy in the Bundesliga this season. He has also won 62% of his ground and aerial duels and has lost possession only 5 times per league game.

Hincapie is a central defender, but can also operate from the left side of the back four. His versatility and enormous potential make him an ideal addition for the Spurs. They could get closer early if Hincapie decides to leave.

At £34 million, he would be a bargain in the current transfer market. Spurs are the only English club that appear to be interested, but more clubs could join the race as the season draws to a close.
