Tottenham Hotspur has been linked to the moves of Richard Rios this summer.
The 25-year-old may leave the club this summer, with Premier League clubs Crystal Palace and Newcastle United also keen on him. All three clubs want to sign players, and he can make a case for reasonable money.
According to journalist Eduardo Burgos, Rios costs about $225 million (£150-20 million). This is a very reasonable asking price for his potential players. He has been a key player in the club and the country for the past 12 months and he can prove to be a reliable acquisition.
Tottenham Hotspur can use Richard Rios
Tottenham Hotspur needs more defensive screens, physical and midfield drive.
The 25-year-old Colombian might be the ideal acquisition. In addition to his defensive contribution, he will also help push the team forward and create opportunities for his teammates. He has the tools to develop into a complete midfield.
Although his death may be a bit unstable, he is surrounded by age and can be improved through coaching and experience.
Newcastle and Crystal Palace are interested in Colombians
Meanwhile, Newcastle qualifies for the Champions League and they need higher quality in the team. Signing the 25-year-old midfielder will help them improve. They have an ambitious project and the opportunity to play for them can also be exciting for South America.
As far as Crystal Palace is concerned, they managed to win the FA Cup last season and they will compete in Europe. They can also be attractive destinations for players.
The asking price is very reasonable and all three clubs have the resources to afford. It would be fun to see where he ended up going.
