Last week, we covered claims from Argentina that Tottenham Hotspur are keeping tabs on Boca Juniors’ Kevin Zenón. It was also stated he has a $15m [£11.4m] release clause in his contract.
Tottenham’s interest in the midfielder is backed up by Pasión Fútbol, who then provide the latest on this case.
His preferred position is midfield but he can operate across several other positions. The 23-year-old arrived at the Argentine club from Unión de Santa Fe in January.
Zenon has made 34 appearances for Boca Juniors, managing four goals and seven assists in the process. His performances have caught the attention of the European clubs and Spurs are one of them.
It’s claimed Tottenham have ‘decided to join the fight’ for the Argentina U23 international.
His contract lasts until December 2028. Despite this, the report states Boca Juniors president Juan Román Riquelme is aware the player ‘can leave for the Premier League’.
The official knows that he ‘can lose’ Zenón, who is closely followed by Tottenham. Pasión Fútbol add Ange Postecoglou’s side aren’t the only club that want him. Newcastle United are also in the picture to sign the player.
Zenón’s $15m release clause would be affordable for both Tottenham and Newcastle.
