Pepe, a winger for FC Porto, is a target for Tottenham Hotspur this summer, although Saudi Arabia is a rival.
a Portuguese-language source reported According to A Bola, Tottenham is particularly interested in the Brazilian forward.
Ange Postecoglou, the new manager of Tottenham, will already be evaluating his team even though he has not yet formally begun his job.
However, Tottenham want to sign Pepe but have been put off by his £64m release clause.
The 26-year-old has been linked with moves to the Premier League in the past.
Whether Spurs can pull off a move given his price tag and interest from Saudi Arabia remains to be seen.
The report from A Bola suggests that Pepe is currently ‘trapped’ at Porto due to his huge release clause.
Pepe is ‘very much desired’ by Tottenham and the club have already made a proposal to sign him.
There’s also interest from PSG and Saudi Arabia in the Brazilian winger as Porto look unlikely to budge from Pepe’s release clause.
Pepe was signed by Porto from Brazilian club Gremio two seasons ago and has looked decent since arriving in Europe.
He recorded four goals and seven assists last season and was shifted to right-back towards the end of the campaign as injury cover.
Pepe is a fantastic dribbler and loves carrying the ball into the box and either getting a shot away or playing a final pass.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou might want to sign Pepe to give the squad a more direct option going forward.
His price tag may be a major issue when it comes to signing the 26-year-old this summer.
Spurs won’t want to spend such a huge fee on a player who may not be a guaranteed starter.
There are also other areas of the squad that require attention before improving their front line.
