tottenham A change in its sporting leadership is expected this summer.
Spurs have been bouncing from one identity to another and now, they are eyeing another Italian to fix their problems.
The man in question is Cristiano Giuntoli, currently without a club, having left Juventus before the end of last season.
He found himself under pressure after the sacking of Thiago Motta and was held responsible for several poor deals made by the Bianconeri.
Interestingly, his situation has not been any better since his departure from Juve. Although this possibly points to bigger issues at the club, Guintoli is famous for taking Napoli to the top in Italy.
As he looks for a new destination, Tottenham have emerged as a possibility.
Tottenham is one of several clubs in the mix
messenger-go LaRoma24Make it clear that Giuntoli will find a new club in the summer.
This comes amid some drama at AS Roma. Chief adviser Claudio Ranieri and manager Gian Piero Gasperini have been waging a public war for a week.
On Friday, they were at loggerheads over several transfer decisions made by the club. There is a strong possibility that Ranieri will depart.
At the same time, due to this, sports director Ricky Massara may also have to be out. If that happens, Guintoli could come in as a replacement.
The Giallorossi's task will not be easy. The Italian is on the radar of several clubs - including Tottenham. Roberto De Zerbi's former club Marseille, who has always had a fairly chaotic sporting establishment, is also interested.
There doesn't seem to be an absolute favorite yet.
Our opinion: Guintoli could be a good arrival
During his time at Napoli, Guintoli succeeded in signing players for relatively low fees, who eventually became recognized stars. It includes Victor Osimhen, Khvicha Kvaratskheliya, Jorginho, Fabian Ruiz and Kim Min-jae.
His strengths matched Napoli's ideas of building a sustainable club that depended on getting the most out of youth signings.
This kind of approach would help Tottenham. Regardless of whether they stay in the Premier League or not, their aim is to rebuild from the bottom. Guintoli did exactly that with Napoli, winning a Serie A title and laying the foundation for their Scudetto victory last season.
The 54-year-old was present at Spurs' home match against Crystal Palace earlier this year.
