Tottenham due tidy windfall as Sporting CP target Vitoria star Marcus Edwards

Tottenham are set for a tidy windfall courtesy of Marcus Edwards' form this season with Vitoria.

The former Spurs winger, 22, swapped London for Portuguese outfit Vitoria in 2019.

And he has impressed with 12 goals and 12 assists in 72 appearances, with minnows Vitoria finishing 7th this term.

A Bola reports Edwards is now being lined up by new Portuguese champions Sporting CP.

It's believed the deal taking Edwards to Vitoria nearly two years ago included a clause giving Spurs 50 per cent of his next transfer fee.

Edwards, who has a release clause of £41million, is said to be valued at around £11.5m, says The Sun.

And should he go for that figure, Spurs would cash in to the sum of just under £6m.
