Tottenham eager to sign brilliant Spanish ace ‘at all costs’, with offer ‘seriously considered’

Tottenham Hotspur are ready to accelerate their move for Real Sociedad star Brais Mendez after he emerged as a transfer target on Monday, according to reports.

Mendez is a 26-year-old attacking midfielder who can also operate as a right winger or centre-forward if required. Sociedad signed him from Celta Vigo in July 2022, and that transfer has proven to be a great piece of business.

Mendez managed 11 goals and eight assists in 47 appearances last season, helping Sociedad finish fourth in La Liga and reach the Europa League last 16, where they were knocked out by Roma.

According to WhoScored, Mendez has been Sociedad’s second-best player this season, as his 7.10 average rating is bettered only by in-form winger Takefusa Kubo.
