Following reports that Piero Hincapié has decided to leave Bayer Leverkusen, Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly stepped up their pursuit of the 23-year-old centre-back.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Spurs have made an offer to Leverkusen in the form of a loan with an obligation to buy for €60 million.

Tottenham are also reportedly in direct talks with Hincapié, aiming to beat Premier League rivals Chelsea and Arsenal to his signature.

Hincapié was in tears following Leverkusen’s 2-1 home defeat to Hoffenheim on Saturday, which is likely to have been his final appearance for Die Werkself.
