Pepe agent urging Porto to hold Spurs talks

FC Porto star Pepe wants to ensure that he can get a move to a top club this summer.

The forward is a huge target for Tottenham, who want him to come in to ease the goal scoring vacuum caused by Harry Kane's departure.

However, Pepe's £64 million release clause is creating issues, as no club wants to pay such a high fee for the player.

Now it appears that his representative has been tasked with going to Porto to discuss lowering the attacker's asking price.

Portuguese publication Mercado Azul states that Pepe's agent, Adriano Spadoto, was set to talk to Porto on Friday.

The former Brazil U20 international can play as a right winger, while he can also fill in at right back.
