Andreas Schjelderup appears close to securing a move to Tottenham this summer, with Benfica now expected to soften their position regarding his departure. The winger has been attracted by the interest from the London club and has been doing everything possible to ensure that the transfer can be completed.
Benfica have a new manager, and Marco Silva had blocked the transfer in recent weeks because he trusts the winger and wanted him to remain at the club. However, the Norway star has continued to insist that he wants to leave this summer and has been pushing for the move to happen.
Benfica prepared to listen to offers for Schjelderup
According to Sporten, Schjelderup has now forced Benfica to reconsider their stance, and the club are prepared to listen to offers for his signature. They are waiting for Tottenham to submit a bid that matches their asking price before allowing the player to leave.
The amount Tottenham are willing to pay will play an important role in Benfica’s final decision. However, their position has changed, and they are now ready to consider his future away from the club if the right offer arrives.
The Portuguese club’s willingness to negotiate gives Tottenham a clearer opportunity to complete the signing. The English side will now need to show that they are serious about bringing the winger to the Premier League.
Tottenham must prove their interest in Schjelderup
Tottenham must now meet Benfica’s demands if they want to secure an agreement for Schjelderup. The next few days could be important, as discussions may progress if the Lilywhites are truly determined to complete the move.
Schjelderup’s desire to join Tottenham has been a major factor in the situation, and his continued efforts have helped create a possible pathway towards a transfer. Benfica’s change in approach could now make an agreement easier to reach.
The winger will hope that the clubs can find a solution that allows him to begin a new challenge. Tottenham, meanwhile, must act quickly if they want to take advantage of the opportunity and complete the signing this summer.
