Tottenham Hotspur recently secured a first refusal over a move to sign Johnny Cardoso from La Liga club Real Betis.
According to a report from Football Insider, the clause that Tottenham secured for Johnny Cardoso could be a “game-changer” for the North London club, and it could help them explore the American market in the near future.
Tottenham have seen a massive rise in popularity in South Korea after the arrival of Son Heung-min, and Daniel Levy will hope that they can expand their brand in America if Cardoso via the clause is signed in the near future.
Tottenham recently sold Giovani Lo Celso to Real Betis, and they secured the first refusal option on the American defensive midfielder for a fee of around £21 million. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham decide to press ahead with a move for the player next summer.
Johnny Cardoso is a defensive midfielder who will be excited to join a Premier League club in the near future, and a move to Tottenham will be an excellent opportunity for him. The talented young midfielder will look to prove himself in English football and establish himself as an important player for Tottenham.
If he manages to succeed with the North London club, Tottenham will be able to explore the untapped potential in American football and bring quality players in the near future. With the advent of MLS, football is becoming increasingly popular in the US, and the arrival of Cardoso will certainly help Tottenham commercially as well, as far as the American market is concerned.
Johnny Cardoso would be a useful addition
Spurs need depth in the middle of of the park, and Cardoso will add tackling ability, physicality, and defensive cover to the side. The young midfielder is likely to improve with coaching and experience, and regular football in the Premier League could accelerate his development.
The midfielder could justify the £21 million investment in the coming seasons, and his influence off the pitch could prove to be invaluable as well. In terms of marketing and revenue, the deal certainly looks like a “game-changer” for Tottenham, and Daniel Levy will be delighted to have pulled off such an agreement.
