Football Transfer Rumors 2013: Tottenham Hotspur Presents Contract Offer To Skillful Brazilian
Brazilian and Corinthians midfielder Paulinho confirmed on Sunday that he has been offered by English Premier League powerhouse Tottenham Hotspur.
The 24-year old Paulinho has been rumored to be one of the Spur's top targets this offseason. This news is apparently not anymore a rumor as Paulinho confirmed that he was already offered a chance of playing as a spur.
"There is an official offer from Tottenham to Corinthians. But, as I did when there was an Inter Milan offer, I'll sit with my family before I make any decision," Paulinho told the Sun following Saturday's 4-2 victory over Italy.
Paulinho said he will only make a decision right after Brazil's campaign in the Confederation Cup. The Selacao are into the semifinal of the pre-World Cup tournament after sweeping all their three preliminary round matches.
"I will only do it after the Confederations Cup because it's hard to deal with all these things," Paulinho added.
Roma and Real Madrid have also shown interest to sign the crafty midfielder, but Paulinho reportedly preferred playing at EPL.
