TBR View: If latest Marcus Edwards rumour is true, it looks like bad news for Tottenham
When Marcus Edwards left Tottenham Hotspur, it was on a free transfer that may have come back to haunt the club amidst an update on his future.
Back in the summer of 2019, the youngster departed north London for Liga NOS outfit Guimaraes. It was agreed between the two clubs that they would split a future sell-on fee 50/50.
Edwards has since enjoyed a great spell with the Portuguese outfit and attracted interest as a result.
