London clubs including Tottenham Hotspur are in the race for Brazilian striker Rodrigo Muniz
Fulham striker Rodrigo Muniz is more interested in joining Tottenham Hotspur than rival club Chelsea. Ange Postecoglou may consider the Brazilian striker’s deal while another Brazilian, Richarlison, leaves the club in the summer, per Tottenham Hotspur News.
The 23-year-old striker joined the English club in 2021, on a five-year contract. Muniz had an impressive last campaign with the Cottagers, where he netted ten goals and an assist in 33 games across all competitions. The netting capability of the youngster have been noticed by several clubs within and outside the league.
When the transfer market is set to open in the coming days, the Brazilian striker has already been approached by the London clubs. Both Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea are set to bid for the Cottagers striker. Spurs have approached multiple strikers across different clubs after the season’s end. Ange Postecoglou is needed as an out-and-out striker for the club, and a manager who is keenly interested in youngsters has increased the chance of Muniz to N17.
The Blues from London also approached the striker, Chelsea, who is heading for their upcoming campaign under new manager Enzo Maresca has many plans to work in the summer transfer. With his arrival, we can see some major changes at Stamford Bridge.
As the two London clubs have approached the player, Muniz may choose Spurs as his favourite over the Blues. The lack of a proper striker in the squad may give the Brazilian more playing time than Chelsea. Also, the player has no idea about the intentions of Chelsea’s gaffer Maresca. By joining the Spurs, the Brazilian can also get featured in the Europa League, where he can compete with different European clubs.
