The 'Daily Mail' claims that Tottenham Hotspur are once again interested in Pau Torres and are one of the clubs most interested in signing him. Manchester United, City and Chelsea are also interested, so it will be difficult for Spurs to win the bidding for the Villarreal centre-back.

Villarreal have surprised everyone this season by reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League. And, if they have done so, it is thanks to players like Pau Torres. A little less than a week after it was leaked that Manchester United, City and Chelsea were following him, 'Daily Mail' adds Tottenham Hotspur to the bidding.

The English newspaper claims that the club has once again shown interest in the central defender, something that has happened several times over the last two years. The problem has always been the same. His buy-out clause is 65 million euros and the Spaniards are not willing to let him go for a much lower price.

In addition, it should be borne in mind that Spurs would have to satisfy the former Malaga player by competing with the projects of the Red Devils, Sky Blues and Blues, who are top level and have plenty of budget to attract the defender. The big attraction could be Antonio Conte, a famous coach who could play a key role in talking to him to convince him.

In any case, Pau Torres has a contract with Villarreal until 2024, so whoever makes the first move and makes an offer to the offices of La Ceramica, they will have to do their utmost. The Spanish club are in a stable situation, especially after winning the prize of reaching the Champions League semi-finals, and do not need to sell their best players.
