Tottenham are determined to improve their options at right-back this summer, with Matt Doherty having struggled since joining from Wolves.

Jose Mourinho can still call upon Serge Aurier, but 22-year-old  Emerson, who was capped by Brazil at senior level in 2019, would provide some extra competition for places.

Tottenham were interested in Emerson last summer but a deal didn’t materialise due to the financial restrictions caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Barcelona and Real Betis secured the joint signing of Emerson from Atletico Mineiro in January 2019.

Emerson has been on loan at Betis for the past two and a half seasons, and it is possible that he could depart permanently this summer, with Barcelona and Betis sharing the percentage of a sale before January 2022.
