Chelsea are set to renew their interest in Tottenham Hotspur midfielder, Paulinho, after the Brazilian admitted that he may leave White Hart Lane.
The 26-year-old, who started his career in North London on fire, has been dropped recently by Mauricio Pochettino and has already hinted that it may be time for him to leave Spurs.
It was reported in the Summer that Chelsea may make a move for the holding-midfielder, but nothing materialised from the reports and he remained at Tottenham.
However, after failing to break into the first-team, Paulinho has admitted that he may be tempted to leave the club next Summer, with Chelsea keen on renewing their interest.
He told Lancenet: “Players always wants to play. I am participating in a few games at Tottenham. Maybe it’s the opportunity to go back.
“There is interest of Brazilian clubs, but nothing concrete yet. I’m glad to have a recognition, I feel proud.
“Tottenham invested very big money to transfer me there, but I can work or not, like any other player.
“I do not have to think about transferring, but any player is subject to transfer when the window opens.”
Despite admitting that a move back to Brazil may be an option, Paulinho could be attracted with a move to Stamford Bridge if the chance arises.
