Mateus Fernandes Says De Zerbi Influenced His Spurs Move

Mateus Fernandes Says De Zerbi Influenced His Spurs Move

Tottenham midfielder Mateus Fernandes says manager Roberto De Zerbi was a major factor in his decision to join the club. Fernandes reportedly completed an £85 million move from West Ham earlier this summer, setting a new transfer record for Spurs at the time. That record was later surpassed following Sandro Tonali’s reported £100 million arrival.
