Report: Spurs have ‘sent a formal offer’ to sign 24-year-old centre-back
When Football Insider reported two weeks ago that Ange Postecoglou’s team was impressed by Aceres’s strong performance in Uruguay’s 2-0 victory over Brazil during last month’s international break, it became apparent that Tottenham was interested in the youngster.
Later, the Record said that Caceres is being pursued by both Tottenham and Sevilla and implied that Club America is growing more and more resigned to the player’s departure in January.
A few days ago, 90 minutes revealed that the 24-year-old is one of four central defenders that Spurs are considering, along with Tosin Adarabioyo, Lloyd Kelly, and Trevoh Chalobah. This information further supports Spurs’ interest in the player..

Tottenham submit offer for Sebastian Caceres
Spurs have reportedly begun talks over a possible transfer for Caceres, according to Esquivel, who made this announcement on X, formerly Twitter.
According to the journalist, Club America has received a “formal offer” from Tottenham to sign him when the transfer window reopens in the winter.
According to him, Caeres and his delegates have approved the transfer, and the Mexican team will reply to the Premier League team’s offer in the “coming days.”
The fact that so many independent media sources are covering this story suggests that the Spurs are really interested in Caceres. The speed at which this transaction appears to be proceeding indicates that Postecoglou’s team is eager to move quickly to complete the transfer and get ahead of other European clubs.
In a related development:
The 24-year-old is believed to be highly sought after by his former team, Tottenham Hotspur, who are reportedly “leading the way” in the transfer market, according to a report from Correio da Manha.
Their London rivals Chelsea will also be a rivalry for them, and it will be interesting to watch which of the two teams makes a firm offer to recruit Edwards first.
After relocating to Portugal, the English winger has performed admirably and has been a vital member of Sporting CP for the past season. Across all competitions last season, he managed to record 12 goals and 14 assists. He has also had a strong start to the current season, tallying three goals and dishing out three assists.
For the athlete, the chance to rejoin his boyhood club would be an alluring offer. He may believe that he still has business with Tottenham, but it’s unclear if the North London team will be able to sign him before their competitors.
According to the report, Tottenham is ahead in the race for transfers. Because of a 25% sell-on clause in his contract, the North London team will be able to sign him for less than their competitors. In the upcoming months, it will be interesting to watch if they can close the transaction.
