Tottenham and Chelsea Set to Compete for Porto’s Samu Aghehowa

Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea are gearing up for another clash, this time aiming to sign Porto’s striker Samu Aghehowa, with former manager André Villas-Boas reportedly amenable to a sale for €80 million.

Chelsea’s Long-Standing Interest

Chelsea has been eyeing the 21-year-old talent since the summer of 2024, having reached a £35 million agreement with his previous team Atletico Madrid.

Transfer Journey

Unfortunately, Aghehowa was unable to clear the medical exam with the West London club and subsequently joined the prestigious Portuguese club, Porto.

Rising Star in Europe

Since making his move to Porto, Aghehowa has demonstrated his potential as one of Europe’s most promising young forwards, netting 36 goals in 56 appearances across various competitions.

Potential Transfer Showdown

According to a report from Correio da Manha, Chelsea is set to make another attempt to sign the Spaniard, but they will face stiff competition from their London rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.

It is believed that Porto’s president, Villas-Boas, who has been at the helm for both Chelsea and Tottenham, is open to facilitating a transfer deal valued at €80 million.
