Tottenham appear to be moving closer to a deal for Brazil midfielder Paulinho after the Corinthians star claimed the EPL side have tabled a bid.
The 24-year-old is currently with his national side for the Confederations Cup but has been widely tipped to leave Corinthians for Europe after impressing in recent months.
Paulinho scored a fantastic equaliser for Brazil, with whom he has collected 15 caps, against England in a friendly clash earlier in the month. “There is an official offer from Tottenham to Corinthians,” Paulinho told reporters after Brazil’s 4-2 win over Italy, which he missed with an ankle injury.
