What do we think?
Willian Jose has been in sensational form for Real Sociedad therefore you can understand why he’s a player Spurs were considering making a move for. The 28-year-old has scored eight goals in his 20 La Liga appearances so far this season and plays as an out and out centre forward.
Signed from Club Deportivo Maldonado in Uruguay, the Brazilian-born striker is now valued at £27m as per Transfermarkt.co.uk.
A former Brazil Under-20 international, the forward has made a great impression in Spain and at his current level there’s no doubt he could have filled a void for Jose Mourinho’s side who remain without Harry Kane.
