Tottenham’s Brazilian forward Lucas Moura could be in line for a dramatic move to Saudi Arabia, the French website RMC has reported.
The report quoted the Brazilian online news outlet Goal, saying that the 28-year-old is considering leaving Tottenham during the summer transfer window after a disappointing campaign for both player and club. The 2020-21 season saw Tottenham finish seventh in the Premier League after sacking coach Jose Mourinho in April.
Moura started his playing career at Sao Paulo before joining Paris Saint-Germain in 2013. In January 2018, he moved to Tottenham for £25 million.
He famously scored a hat-trick against Ajax in May 2019 to take Tottenham to the final of the UEFA Champions League in Madrid, where the London club lost 2-0 to Liverpool
According to the report, Moura could be about to receive bids from reigning champions Al-Hilal and Riyadh rival Al-Nasr, who finished the season sixth in the Saudi pro League standing.
Both clubs have declared an interest in the player.
