Sao Paulo, Corinthians target Paulinho?

Corinthians and Sao Paulo are both interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Paulinho, according to reports.

Sao Paulo and Corinthians have both joined the race to sign Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Paulinho, according to reports.

Paulinho has not started a Premier League game under Mauricio Pochettino this season, and has struggled to produce his best form on a regular basis since moving to Spurs from Corinthians in a £17m deal last summer.

According to The Mirror, Corinthians would be keen to bring the 26-year-old back to Brazil, but they could face competition from rivals Sao Paulo.

Corinthians sporting director Edu Gaspar said: "The door is open for Paulinho as he is still very popular here. I don't think the financial package would be an issue."

Despite struggling to secure minutes in the Premier League, Paulinho has started five Europa League games this season.
