Tottenham Hotspur ‘will be looking at’ Bayer Leverkusen defender Piero Hincapie

Tottenham Hotspur ‘will be looking at’ Bayer Leverkusen defender Piero Hincapie amid increasing speculation over his future, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.

Antonio Conte is believed to be in the market for reinforcements along his backline after signing Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur to bolster his attack and midfield in the January transfer window.

Hincapie only joined Leverkusen last August after putting in several eye-catching displays for boyhood club Independiente and then Argentine outfit Club Atletico Talleres, whose president dubbed him ‘the best young defender in Latin America’.

However, the highly-rated 20-year-old could be on the move again in just a few months’ time after attracting the attention of several heavyweight sides across the continent.

According to Football Insider, the likes of AC Milan, Roma, Napoli, Sevilla and Zenit St. Petersburg are all interested in snapping up Hincapie, while Spurs are already plotting a summer deal.

The Ecuador international helped his side to third spot in the South American qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar and has carried his impressive national team form into club competitions.

As per WhoScored, Hincapie has won 2.5 aerial duels, while also making 2.5 clearances and 0.8 blocks per league game this season, placing him in the top three for each metric when compared to his teammates.

The 6 foot ace has contributed two goals and one assist in 22 appearances across all competitions for Leverkusen to date, playing a pivotal part in their rise to third place in the Bundesliga standings.
