Spurs could decide to sell Brazilian forward, Lucas Moura, if a suitable and acceptable offer comes in for the former PSG man this summer.

That’s according to The Athletic, who claim that Lucas is one of a number of players that the club and Nuno Santo are open to seeing leave.

Lucas’ name is a new one on the list for Tottenham fans. The likes of Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks have also been touted about, but that is well known among supporters.

The Athletic claim that Lucas is in a group of players that Spurs could opt to sell, if the right offer comes in. That means that the club are in no way looking to force him out, but they remain open on his situation.

The Brazilian speedster has emerged as a key squad player for Spurs in recent seasons. Despite never quite nailing down a starting XI berth on a weekly basis, Lucas is still valued.

He scored nine and provided another eight in all competitions last season, and appeared 50 times throughout the campaign.

Surprise sale but big changes at Spurs

Selling Lucas would be a bit of a surprise, but then again, it’s a period of change at Spurs under Fabio Paratici.

If he brings players in and gets the right faces through the door, then it is inevitable that some need to leave. Lucas, then, is in that boat where there is an element of uncertainty.

In fairness, despite his work ethic, he has hardly delivered the goods for the money Spurs paid. He’s had his moments, but like so many for Spurs, hasn’t done it consistently.

If the right money does come, then you can see why Tottenham might be open to letting him leave.
