Spurs target Gaitan can't rule out leaving Benfica

Benfica winger Nicolas Gaitan is open to a move away in January.

The Argentine, a long-term target for Manchester United and Manchester City, has been linked with Tottenham this season after returning to his very best.

"In Lisbon, I am well and happy," said Gaitan, "but there is always the opportunity to leave."

Asked about a move to England, Gaitan's agent Jose Iribarren, told Record: "Certainly if a good offer comes to the club and the player, he may decide to leave the club, as it is normal to happen in football.

"At the moment there has not been an offer or contact with anyone, and the market is still ages away."
