Tottenham has intensified its interest in Jon Aramburu, the 24-year-old right-back from Real Sociedad, to add a full-back before the closing of the transfer market in the Premier League.
The English board values the signing of the Venezuelan international following a formal request from coach Roberto De Zerbi, in an operation conditioned by the €51 million (£51 million) release clause set in his contract with the San Sebastian entity.

Roberto De Zerbi's Plan for Tottenham's Right Wing
The Tottenham hierarchy is seeking a defensive specialist to compete directly with Pedro Porro and replace Djed Spence in the first-team squad. The Italian coach aims to add competition on the right flank as Archie Gray, the 20-year-old midfielder used as a wing-back in the early matches of the season, has not reached the expected performance in that position.
According to Football Insider and The Spurs Web, the coaching staff believes that the arrival of the 24-year-old defender will provide the defensive coverage required by De Zerbi's system. Aramburu had already attracted interest from several Premier League clubs after completing two seasons in Spain.
Jon Aramburu's Stats at Real Sociedad and Financial Terms
The defender solidified his place in the starting lineup of Real Sociedad last season, playing 35 official matches in which he scored 1 goal and received 10 yellow cards. The performance of the Venezuelan international attracted continuous scouting from British talent spotters before entering the final stretch of the summer window.
Although the player's contract includes a €51 million release clause, the Real Sociedad board has not specified the exact amount they would accept to start a direct negotiation. The Basque club awaits the official stance of the London club before authorizing any defensive line movements.
Representatives from Tottenham and Real Sociedad will hold virtual meetings in the next 12 hours. The English club executives will decide whether to submit a formal written offer before Tuesday, September 1, or consider an alternative in the transfer market.
