The player has previously worked with Spurs&#8217; new boss Nuno Espirito Santo, having been on loan at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/07\/14\/wolves-set-to-sign-jose-sa\/\" target=\"_self\">Wolverhampton Wanderers<\/a> last season during Nuno&#8217;s final campaign in charge.<\/p>\n<p>He made 22 appearances for the club in all competitions, scoring the winner in a 1-0 win in the FA Cup against National League North side Chorley.<\/p>\n<p>Vitinha still has three years to run on his current contract at Porto, where he has been for the whole of his career bar the loan spell at Wolves.<\/p>\n<p>Having impressed at a young age, though, and given the relationship between Espirito Santo and Mendes, there is every chance this deal could be pushed through.<\/p>\n<p>At the moment, though, there have been no offers made and no discussions with either Vitinha or Porto regarding the move. It&#8217;s merely just a case of the youngster being one of the options Spurs are considering.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs have a number of midfielders whose futures at the club are uncertain, so it&#8217;s no surprise to see them considering reinforcements in this area.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Winks was linked with a move away <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/01\/05\/harry-winks-tottenham-hotspur-valencia\/\" target=\"_self\">in January<\/a> and has been <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2021\/07\/14\/marcus-rashford-could-miss-first-two-months-of-season\/\" target=\"_self\">linked with Aston Villa<\/a> more recently.<\/p>\n<p>As well, Eric Dier, who can play in midfield or defence, has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurosport.co.uk\/football\/transfers\/2020-2021\/transfer-news-tottenham-hotspur-to-sell-seven-stars-to-raise-summer-transfer-funds-paper-round_sto8405290\/story.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">linked<\/a> with a move away, which also provides space at the back for the arrival of Tomiyasu.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"kx6rqSJdQkVp6sl2kTKUFA\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1230934911\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'kx6rqSJdQkVp6sl2kTKUFA',sig:'XxuSSjovoINWh4Uayarn_8v_ioXbUNaQgjJ2Aj74fKE=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1230934911',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering a bid for Porto midfielder Vitinha. football.london&#8217;s Daniel Orme reports that with a deal for defender Takehiro Tomiyasu nearing completion, the club have now turned their attention to other positions in the squad and have identified Vitinha as a possible target.
