Piero Hincapié Transfer from Bayer 04 Leverkusen to Tottenham Hotspur
According to Team Talk, Tottenham is showing interest in acquiring Piero Hincapie to fill the role of a left-sided center-back. The club has pinpointed Hincapie as their preferred choice for this position. However, the transfer is anticipated to be challenging and would likely require a substantial financial commitment. Tottenham holds Hincapie in high regard, noting his primary position as a centre-back, with experience also as a left-back. Bayer Leverkusen is reluctant to part with Hincapie before the summer transfer window closes on September 1, given that they have already lost several key players. Nonetheless, should Tottenham opt to activate the release clause, Bayer would be unable to prevent the transfer.
Piero Hincapié is open to a transfer in the summer, with interest from top clubs. His agent, Manuel Sierra, stated that Hincapié wants to take the next step in his career after four years at Leverkusen. Tottenham Hotspur is mentioned as one of the interested clubs. The player can be bought out for a fee of 50 to 60 million Euros from his contract, which runs until 2029.
90min reports on Tottenham Hotspur's interest in Piero Hincapie's potential transfer.
Tottenham Hotspur has expressed interest in acquiring Piero Hincapié, who recently renewed his contract with Bayer Leverkusen until 2029. Despite the contract extension, speculation about a possible transfer continues. Last year, Atlético Madrid submitted an official offer for Hincapié, and clubs like Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, and Napoli have reportedly shown interest as well. Bayer Leverkusen has internally assessed that a transfer fee of 70 million euros would be appropriate if Hincapié were to move abroad in the summer. Nevertheless, there are currently no solid signs of such a transfer, as Leverkusen's main focus remains on retaining the Ecuadorian national player.
