Contract and release clause
Roberto Fernández is 24 and his contract with Espanyol runs until 2031. The release clause has been raised to €30 million, reflecting his recent growth.
This season, the forward has featured in seven matches, scoring six goals. His debut for the Spanish national team came shortly after that start to the season.
Braga, which holds part of Fernández's rights, will be watching the whole process. The Minho club sold the player for just over €6 million in the summer of 2025.
According to Bailey, Tottenham may submit a proposal to the Cornellà-El Prat side. The possible offer shows the English club's admiration for the striker's development.
