Tosin Adarabioyo’s Transfer Saga Continues
In a dramatic twist in the transfer window, the much-anticipated move of Tosin Adarabioyo to AS Monaco seems to be hanging by a thread.

With his contract expiring next year, the clock is ticking.
Spurs’ Ambitious Bid for Pepê
Tottenham Hotspur have thrown their hat in the ring with a whopping €45M bid for FC Porto’s versatile star, Pepê. The offer, which includes an enticing €15M in goal bonuses, however, might not cut it. Porto’s holding out for a cool €70M. Pepê, the Brazilian sensation, has dazzled in multiple roles, from left-winger to attacking midfielder, under the strategic eye of Porto’s gaffer, Sergio Conceica. With 5 goals and 9 assists in 45 appearances this season, he’s a hot commodity. And with a contract running till 2027 and a release clause of €75M, Spurs have their work cut out. While Porto rebuffed Tottenham’s initial overture for Pepê, the North London club is not backing down. Word on the street is that a revised offer is in the works.
