Report: Rodrigo Bentancur’s agent in talks over Tottenham exit

According to a report in Takvim, Rodrigo Bentancur’s agent has spoken to Galatasaray about a potential summer transfer.

Galatasaray are interested in Rodrigo Bentancur

The report states that Bentancur has emerged as a ‘surprise name’ on Galatasaray’s agenda for the summer window as the Turkish club look to bolster their midfield ahead of the new season.

Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk is said to be keen on bringing the Tottenham man to the club but it is explained that the Istanbul club are aware that the operation would be quite difficult to pull off.

Nevertheless, they are willing to make an effort to see if they can push it through, with the club officials already thought to have met the 26-year-old’s agent to discuss the ‘financial conditions’ of a move.

Could Bentancur leave Spurs this summer?

The report further asserts that Galatasaray’s Uruguayan duo of Fernando Muslera and Lucas Torreira could help convince the Spurs man about making a move to Rams Park.

This update comes on the back of Bentancur receiving plenty of criticism for his distasteful joke on Son Heung-min.

Reports indicate that the midfielder could be charged by the FA for his conduct even though his apology has been accepted by the Tottenham captain (The Times).

Spurs Web Opinion

Any transfer rumours coming from Turkish outlets should be taken with a pinch of salt as they like to sensationalise stories and play fast and loose with the details.

I do not think Spurs will consider offloading Bentancur this summer unless they receive a substantial offer.
