Getafe Paraguayan centre-back Omar Alderete is a transfer target for Tottenham Hotspur.
Ufabet reported on Friday that Getafe’s Paraguayan defender Omar Alderete is a target for Tottenham Hotspur, who are looking to bolster their defence in January, as the 27-year-old centre-back has a release clause of just €16 million.
Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs are limited in central defence options following injuries to Cristian Romero, Mickey van de Ven and Ben Davies, with the Spurs reportedly eyeing a move for Getafe’s Alderete to bolster their defence.
Tottenham’s interest in Omar Alderete is understandable. The North London giants are scouring the market for a centre-back heading into the January transfer window amid the brewing injury crisis, with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven struggling with fitness issues this season.
So, Tottenham will reportedly dip into the market for a defender in the January transfer window, with Alderete emerging as a viable target. The Premier League heavyweights now know how much it will take to sign the South American defender, with Getafe demanding €16 million to part ways with him this winter.
Alderete joined Getafe on loan from Hertha Berlin for the 2022-23 season before signing permanently with the Azulons thereafter. Although the Paraguayan centre-back is under contract until 2028, he does have a release clause of just €16m – a figure Tottenham are prepare to pay to bolster their defence in January.
Getafe have won just three Promotion ufabet of their 16 La Liga games this season. But Jose Bordalas’ side have conceded just 13 goals, with Alderete playing a key role in that run, missing just once in 15 games.
