According to Goal.com, Tottenham have emerged as the favourites to sign teenage forward Rayan and are ready to launch a €30m bid. The 19-year-old has also attracted interest from Chelsea, Liverpool and Aston Villa.

Spurs scouts made a trip to South America last week to watch Vasco Da Gama winger Rayan, and representatives of Tottenham have already spoken to the teenager’s agents over a January switch. According to Calciomercato, there could be an auction for the teenager in January, and Tottenham are said to have jumped to the front of the queue for his signature. Recent reports from Brazil also claim Spurs have done groundwork on securing a work permit ahead of a new year move. Rayan being on the brink of winning a call-up to the senior Brazil set-up will also make a permit easier to attain. The teenager is thought to have a release clause of €40m (£34.3m) in his contract, but Spurs are not expected to have to match that, and it is thought they will have to bid between €20m-€30m (£17.4m-£26.1m) to convince Vasco to sell.

According to Calciomercato.it, 19-year-old Vasco da Gama winger Rayan is attracting interest from Brighton & Hove Albion, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest and Tottenham, all of whom have the financial strength to outbid fellow suitors AC Milan and Roma.

Tottenham Hotspur continue to be linked with a move for Vasco da Gama striker Rayan. According to a report from Brazilian publication O Globo, multiple clubs are keeping tabs on the player. The player has a €40 million release clause in his contract, but he could be allowed to leave for a fee of around €30 million, as per Jorge Nicola. Tottenham have the financial means to pay for the transfer.
