It is hard to say what is Tottenham’s weak point. Many would say left-back. This is where Alex Sandro comes in. With Kieran Trippier on the right and Sandro on the left, Spurs would have a couple of stud full-backs.

Where Trippier’s style of play features a lot of crosses, Sandro is capable of running right through the defense. He’s at home on any part of the pitch. He can even score goals, which was seen recently when Brazil played Saudi Arabia.

It gets even better. The Brazilian recently had an interview with Sky Sport. In it, he says “I never thought about leaving Juventus, but I have not yet received renewal proposals.” This may indicate that Juventus is willing to part with the full-back.
