According to various papers today, Tottenham are to challenge Liverpool, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid for Porto attacking midfielder Ricardo Quaresma.The Portuguese international has been linked with a move away from the Drago for some time now and it appears as though he could leave the club before the end of the January transfer window.
Quaresma, 24, has been at Porto since 2004 after leaving Spanish giants Barcelona and he has made over 100 appearances for the club scoring 24 times.
Porto vice-president Fernando Povoas has remarked in a double-edged statement: "I know that he is happy at Porto. Regarding a possible transfer, we will decide together at the right time."
I have seen a bit of Quaresma, mainly in the Champions League and he looks quite tasty. He is a midfielder that rarely helps the defence out. Spurs boss Juande Ramos is said to be keen on bringing him to White Hart Lane, but he will have to bid at least £25 million, which in my view is way to much for Quaresma.
