Tottenham should sign Pereira to replace Trippier

Tottenham could be on the hunt for a new right-back this summer following the departure of Kieran Trippier. Mauricio Pochettino has Juan Foyth, Serge Aurier and Kyle Walker-Peters at his disposal, but he might want to scour the transfer market for a tried and tested replacement.

One player he should consider signing is Ricardo Pereira – a player they tried to sign last summer. The 25-year-old has impressed at Leicester City since his 2018-move from FC Porto and would be a good option at right-back. He wouldn’t come cheap, however, as Leicester paid £20m to sign him 12 months ago and now consider him a key player in the squad.
