Tottenham edging closer to deal to sign Galatasaray's Bruma - source

This is a modal window.

Former Arsenal forward Paul Mariner explains just how important the North London derby is to Arsenal and Tottenham.

Tottenham have been locked in talks over the transfer of Galatasaray winger Bruma since January, a source close to the player has told ESPN FC, with a deal thought to be close to completion.

The Premier League side have been driving a hard bargain and negotiations over Bruma, 22, have been off and on for some time.

The source said Galatasaray have accepted that they may not be able to extend the Portugal under-21 international's contract, which will have just 12 months remaining at the end of the season, with talks having been unsuccessful.
