Jonathan David could move from Juventus tottenham There may be a chance to sign him.

The striker struggled to make his mark in Turin during the 2025/26 campaign. He scored six goals and added four assists, but was never convincing enough for Luciano Spalletti. This ensured that he did not start any of the last four league games.

sports witness It tells how English clubs are preparing to sign him. Juve are interested in a separation, as anything they earn from their exit will be reduced as capital gains.

Now, the Bianconeri are ready to offer him to Tottenham as they want two players in return.

cheeky offer on the way

alljuve Report that Juve are currently interested in two Tottenham players.

One is left-back Destiny Udogie, who is seen as the ideal solution to their full-back concerns. Andrea Cambiasso’s future is in doubt and the ex-Udinese player could come in as a replacement.

Guglielmo Vicario is also a potential target. The Old Lady are desperate for a goalkeeper and feel the Italian is ready to return to Serie A.

Juve also admit that the financial situation of both players may be difficult. That’s why they could offer David to Tottenham as a potential makeweight and some cash.

They are optimistic that Roberto De Zerbi could be tempted by the opportunity. Even if the Canadian player has not impressed over the past 12 months, he is still seen as a way to turn a complicated move into an easy one.

Fancy idea but Tottenham shouldn’t be too keen

It feels as if Vicario’s time in London is over. Although Udogi has serious injury concerns, he may still have a chance to improve himself.

This is why there is no direct need for Tottenham to let the left-back go. What’s more, there is no pressure on them to let him go for a cheap fee.

A double deal for both Italians should cost more than €50m, far more than David’s current value.

The Canada international itself would be quite risky. This makes this swap more convenient for Juve than Tottenham, who need signings in the backline and midfield.

tottenham Suddenly a real goaltender situation could develop around Anatoly Trubin.

which seemed interesting at first Set of comments from a former Roberto De Zerbi player The move to Portugal has rapidly developed into something more solid, with local reports now placing the Benfica goalkeeper firmly on Spurs’ radar.

portuguese outlet to ball State Tottenham are interested in the 24-year-old as the club begin planning for next season after regaining Premier League status.

The report claims Spurs view Trubin as one of their priority profiles for the position, although any move will likely depend on Guglielmo Vicario leaving first.

Inter Milan reportedly have a personal agreement with the Italian The Portuguese described disappointing performances this season, with Vicario even losing his starting place at the end of the campaign.

This has pushed Tottenham into the market for a long-term solution, and Trubin now appears to be one of the names under consideration.

Why Tottenham might like the profile

According to Portuguese reports, Tottenham value Trubin’s age, ability and technical margin for development.

At 24, he already combines top-level European experience with a profile suited to modern positional football. He arrived at Benfica from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2023 for €10m (£8.4m), plus €1m (£840k) in bonuses, and is now tied to the Portuguese side until 2028.

His release clause is €100 million (£84 million), although Benfica are reportedly open to negotiations under the right circumstances.

The numbers behind their season are also strong.

In Liga Portugal, Trubin scored only 20 goals in 32 matches and kept 13 clean sheets. Benfica allows a goal every 144 minutes he is on net, while the goals he concedes per 90 minutes are only 0.63.

His shot blocking stats are equally impressive. Trubin saved 74 of the 98 shots he faced, giving him a save percentage of 75.51%.

In all competitions, he played 50 matches this season, including 14 Champions League matches.

Nothing suggests a transfer is imminent. However, the overall picture now seems much more real than simple praise between player and coach.

Tottenham are looking at goalkeepers. Trubin wants the Premier League one day. And few players have spoken about De Zerbi with as much enthusiasm as the Benfica man did this week.

tottenham Players are still getting used to life under Roberto De Zerbi, but Benfica goalkeeper Anatoly Trubin has already offered a detailed glimpse of what it’s really like to work with the Italian.

And judging by the Ukrainian’s words, the current Spurs manager makes a very strong impression on his players.

talking to to ballThe 24-year-old reflected on his season under De Zerbi at Shakhtar Donetsk in 2021/22. The Italian has clearly changed the way he looks at football.

Trubin described De Zerbi in one word: “crazy.”

However this was not a criticism. Quite the opposite.

Trubin explains the de Zerbi effect

Anatoly Trubin repeated many times that De Zerbi changed his understanding of football.

“He opened my eyes to another way of playing, even for me, as a goalkeeper. He wants everyone to know their role.” he explained.

“We still ask ourselves how we played football before him, because he opened a new way of playing for us.” He said.

The Italian has built his reputation around structured possession football, aggressive build-up play and demanding positional responsibilities. Goalkeepers become part of the build-up phase rather than simple shot stoppers.

For that reason, it’s especially interesting to hear such strong praise from a goalkeeper.

Trubin then also made it clear that he would welcome another opportunity to work with him, along the lines of something that would inevitably attract attention in North London.

“He can still teach me a lot,” The goalkeeper admitted that before answering whether he would like to move to England.

“There is no player in the world who does not want to play in the Premier League, but I have to continue to work hard.”

For now, Trubin says he’s happy in Lisbon, and touts its benefits “Ten Months of the Sun”. Nevertheless, the overall tone of the interview was extremely positive whenever De Zerbi’s name came up.

Could Tottenham finally take a look at him?

It is expected that Tottenham will make a decision in line with the target this summer.

Interest in Guglielmo Vicario remains and may not last forever, while Antonin Kinski still has to prove he can become a long-term No. 1 at Premier League level. This naturally makes the Trubin angle interesting.

The Ukrainian already understands the demands of De Zerbi better than most goalkeepers on the market. At 24, he also fits the profile that Tottenham usually target – young enough for development, but already experienced at a high level.

His figures have been strong this season too. In Liga Portugal, Trubin conceded only 20 goals in 32 matches and kept 13 clean sheets. Benfica allows a goal with him every 144 minutes, while the goals he concedes per 90 minutes is 0.63.

His shot blocking numbers are also impressive. Trubin saved 74 of the 98 shots he faced, giving him a save percentage of 75.51%.

Those statistics help explain why Benfica view him as one of Portugal’s most valuable goalkeepers. Manchester City were linked with them Before stepping in for Gianluigi Donnarumma. That’s why their stocks are high.

At present there does not seem to be anything to suggest that Tottenham are actively pursuing him. However, after such glowing comments about De Zerbi, and with uncertainty surrounding Spurs’ goalkeeping situation, Trubin suddenly feels like a profile worth watching if Tottenham are to remain in the Premier League.

tottenham Premier League survival is getting closer, but that may not automatically secure Joao Palinha’s long-term future.

For several weeks, expectations around Spurs were relatively straightforward. Roberto De Zerbi wanted to keep the midfielder, Tottenham had a purchase option worth €30m (£25.8m) from Bayern Munich, and Palhinha became one of the club’s most important players during a difficult season.

However, the story in Portugal is now becoming far more complex for Tottenham.

Tottenham cannot complete the deal alone

according to to ballNegotiations between Palhinha and Sporting’s hierarchy are already progressing ‘at good pace’ behind the scenes.

And the bottom line is that, even if Tottenham survive and try to activate the clause, the player may still have the deciding word.

The Portuguese outlet reported that Tottenham’s option agreement with Bayern is still dependent on full approval from all three parties involved – Bayern, Spurs and Palinha himself.

“If João Palhinha says no, the decision will be irreversible.” That sentence itself changes the tone of this saga.

Until now, Tottenham’s purchase clause was largely seen as giving them complete control. Instead, the Portuguese press is presenting it as a situation where Personal wishes of the midfielder It can eventually outweigh everything else.

And Sporting are clearly acting accordingly. The Lisbon side are already planning in detail Palhinha’s possible return.

If the move becomes permanent, Sporting will reportedly offer him a three-year contract, captaincy responsibilities and a key leadership role inside the dressing room.

The family factor is becoming impossible to ignore

The family perspective is also becoming stronger.

Recent reports have already surfaced Palhinha rejected approaches from major Turkish clubs Because he wants to be close to his family. Now A Bola has described the return to Lisbon as “irresistible”.

Despite privately leaning towards a return, Palhinha reportedly refused to express any desire to leave Tottenham before the club’s survival was mathematically secured. The midfielder did not want to create instability while Spurs were still fighting relegation.

In Portugal that stance is being presented as a matter of professional ethics rather than a hesitation over sporting.

Meanwhile, Sporting’s operations are being led by director Bernardo Morais Palmeiro, who reportedly has an excellent relationship with Palinha’s family after helping oversee the midfielder’s move from Fulham to Bayern Munich.

Tottenham is still far ahead in this race. De Zerbi is a big fan and wants to have Palhinha central in the project for next season. But in Portugal there is a feeling now that it is no longer just about clauses, fees or negotiations between clubs.

The player themselves begins to look like the one who can decide how the story will end.

Tottenham Hotspur They need just one point from their last two Premier League matches to avoid relegation.

Spurs are now 17th, two points ahead of 18th-placed West Ham United, with a game in hand and a much better goal difference.

While the immediate focus is on staying in the top flight, Tottenham are also working on potential deals for the summer.

The Italian is considering a move to Serie A, after appointing Roberto De Zerbi as his new manager in March.

Tottenham manager sets his sights on the pair

tuttosport Now the north London club’s manager is reported to have set his sights on Juventus’ Pierre Kalulu and Fiorentina’s Nicolo Fagioli.

On March 30, Khel Witness broadcast news Several clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, are planning to sign Kalulu.

Manchester United have also taken notice of the 25-year-old central defender and have already made an approach. However, the Turin club closed the exit door.

Spurs are now keeping an eye on the France international and have sent a scout to watch him live in Juve’s 2-0 defeat to Fiorentina on Sunday. The official also saw La Viola’s midfielder Fagioli. Kalulu played the full 90 minutes while Fagioli remained on the field for 64 minutes.

Roberto De Zerbi is ‘keen on both players’ as he looks to improve Spurs’ squad to help them return to Europe. The English club are expected to make a move for the 25-year-old Italy international in the coming days.

sports witness recently Covered claims from Italy Without mentioning any figures, Fiorentina needs a ‘unique’ proposal. TuttoSport now report that La Viola would not consider less than €30-40m for the 25-year-old midfielder.

The English club is unlikely to succeed in signing the French defender as Juventus want to retain him. The Turin club have begun talks with his representative over a contract renewal until 2030, which would see a net salary increase from €2.4m to €3.8-4m per year.

Our opinion: Tottenham could use Paratischi’s help

Earlier this year, Fabio Paratici ended his second stint at Spurs to join Fiorentina as their sporting director.

Tottenham Hotspur could seek the help of their former director in an attempt to sign Nicolo Fagioli.

His contract expires in 2028 and he is valued at €16m transfer market. The same outlet now values ​​Pierre Kalulu, who has a contract until 2029 €32m.

Tottenham Hotspur Goalkeeper Nicolo Fagioli has recently changed his agents, hinting that a transfer could be on the cards this summer.

Firenze Viola report that the 25-year-old Agents have been swapped ahead of the busy summer transfer window.

tottenham and other lovers

The website states that it was ‘quite predictable’ that many foreign clubs began to notice and monitor Nicolo Fagioli’s rise this year. He has impressed despite a disastrous season for Fiorentina.

Now he seems to be in the sights of Tottenham. Reports have made it clear that Roberto De Zerbi is an admirer of his compatriot and would be keen on a move in the summer. It is up to Spurs to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

It looks like Tottenham could be the first in a long line of teams ready to knock on the Viola’s door this summer. And it appears the midfielder is preparing himself for offers.

He recently announced that he has switched agencies, from CAA Stellar Agency to Giovanni Branchini & Associates. This would indicate that possible steps are likely to be taken this summer.

tottenham line up

The ball will be in Fiorentina’s court. It remains to be seen whether Fabio Paratici will approve an exit or decide to block any exit and make Fiorentina a team to move forward.

Either way, if Tottenham avoid relegation this summer it appears they are set to make a move. Sport Witness covered a report earlier today that seems to indicate this.

That report made it clear that Tottenham are getting serious about Nicolo Fagioli. The Italian midfielder is seen as a player who can help solve their midfield problems going forward.

However, they may also have to face a fight. Another report on this matter indicated that Fabio Paratici is ready to fight his former club To make sure they can’t get fagioli this summer. But the change of agents suggests the player is at least considering his options.

tottenham Manager Roberto De Zerbi has always been known as a highly emotional personality. Italians are demanding, radical, and often belligerent.

This appeared in Marseille, where he was public about many of his concerns.

This played a role in his exit earlier this year, as he fell out with many in Ligue 1. De Zerbi seems to have adapted to Tottenham’s delicate situation with surprising ease, but stories about his personality and approach are well documented.

Details about her broken relationship with Ismail Kone have now emerged.

player recalls problems

The Canadian midfielder has become a rising name in Serie A due to his performances at Sassuolo.

I have now talked to him gazzetta dello sport And he was asked about his relationship with De Zerbi in Marseille. The two were involved in an infamous training ground scrap at the French club, which led to the 2025 Canada international’s exit.

Describing the conflict, Kone said: “We are two people who love football, but with two different viewpoints. He is really incredibly passionate. At the time, I was facing some difficulties and maybe I was not able to immediately give him what he wanted.”

The Sassuolo player explained how the tactical approach did not suit his playing style.

“I would never say anything bad about Roberto. Maybe he could have been more patient with me, and I could have avoided responding. Things happen. It was an argument like many others.

“He wants one or two touches in the middle of the pitch, but I want a little freedom. I want to watch the game. He knew that, but he got angry that day.”

Despite this, Kone has no regrets about his time at Marseille.

“I had a great time at Marseille. It was a great experience. I remember the skill of my teammates and the warmth of the fans. I will never be more grateful for what I experienced there, even if it didn’t go the way I wanted.”

This couple has ended their mutual rift

Kone revealed that he recently met De Zerbi during his current stint at Tottenham. Both of them have accepted it and have overcome their problems.

“A few weeks ago I went to London with two friends, I met Roberto and he hugged me tightly. We talked about many things, as if nothing had happened. Sometimes social media and the media make everything too big.

“Marseille’s decision. I didn’t know they would include it in the documentary celebrating that special season with the return of the Champions League. This episode has not changed me.

“I know where I’m coming from. I’m sorry that this may be affecting people around me. And there’s something that no one knows.”

tottenham players will know

This is an excellent example of how De Zerbi typically works. He wants his teams to play faster between the lines, rather than slowing down the pace of the game.

Although it has been seen at Tottenham, it seems like a softer version of the Italian so far. He has understood the situation very well and is constantly praising the players for lifting their mood.

At the same time, this 46 year old version will not work. Things will be different next season. De Zerbi will focus more on imposing his views and that is when Spurs players will see a more radical version of him.

Pervis Estupian’s struggles at AC Milan continue to grow and the idea of ​​a tottenham Transfer is very much under consideration.

sports witness It previously covered the London club’s interest in the defender, who joined from Brighton last summer. There was excitement over a deal but instead, Davide Bartesaghi has become the first-choice left-back.

This was also evident during Milan’s 0-0 draw against Juventus. Most of the Italian media expected Estupinan to start, but it was the young player who got the nod.

The Ecuadorian came on at half-time but couldn’t really make an impact.

Roberto De Zerbi wants to reunite with Estupinan at Tottenham.

Hope is fading for the defender

milanlive It is also expected that the South American will start against the Old Ladies on Sunday. He made it clear in a report over the weekend, surprised that Estupinon would be given priority over Bartesaghi.

The outlet says that despite scoring a big goal against Inter a few weeks ago, Estupinon is likely to leave Milan in the summer.

Manager Max Allegri appears to disagree and is happy to be on the sidelines. ‘De Zerbi is believed to be ready for that’ for Tottenham, with the left-back seen in a more attacking role at Brighton.

Milan are unlikely to oppose his exit and would only need a small capital gain to sell him. He paid a base fee to Brighton €17 million last summer and Spurs could have brought him to England for any price anywhere near that.

Our opinion: Tottenham may have a dilemma

The British press have already talked about Spurs’ interest in Andy Robertson. The Scotsman could arrive as a free agent, especially if the London club remains in the Premier League.

Estupinan is young and can potentially offer more than the Liverpool player. But he is not a free agent and may also attract more clubs in the summer.

That’s why Tottenham will face a dilemma at the end of the season.

De Zerbi has always been a demanding manager and it will be interesting to see if he puts pressure on him to sign his former player.

tottenham With upgrade expiration, manual may not be able to unload Locatelli. This is a shame for Spurs, as it is believed he could have been a perfect fit for Roberto De Zerbi.

A few weeks ago, sports witness Claims of interest from the London club in the Italian were covered. This was largely due to De Zerbi, who worked closely with Locatelli during his time at Sassuolo.

In fact, it was under the Tottenham manager that the midfielder really took significant steps forward in his career. This gave him a chance to go to Juventus and now he is their captain.

The 28-year-old is close to signing a new deal in Turin, extending his stay until 2030.

As a result, Locatelli’s stay has become a talking point, as the player has been very impressive in the current campaign.

Former coach asked about Spurs move

Walter De Vecchi, who trained Locatelli during his time at AC Milan, spoke alljuve Regarding player status.

He was asked about the buzz surrounding Tottenham and whether he could be a fit for De Zerbi.

The Italian replied: “For me, yes, but who wouldn’t want him right now? He’s a player that everyone wants, but Juve have made the right decision to close him down.”

Further praising, De Vecchi said: “There are few players like him in Europe, and they are all quite expensive.”

Furthermore, the coach described the midfielder as a person with a special mind.

“I never had any doubts about the player; he is a special boy with an equally magical mind. He just needed to find a symbiosis of ideas, and he succeeded with Spalletti’s style of football, which really makes him a hero.”

He also appeared to praise Locatelli’s decision to sign a new deal at the Old Lady.

“I hope they can win, but with Spalletti in the next two years, it could seriously happen. Juventus now have a European style of play. They are one of the few teams in Italy that come out on top and always try to dominate the game.”

Only De Zerbi could reassure Locatelli

During their time together at Sassuolo, it felt as if De Zerbi and Locatelli were made for each other. The midfielder influenced the manager’s playing style, breaking down the opposition press and often passing the ball forward.

Even if Tottenham are struggling, the 46-year-old could be crucial in bringing Locatelli to London. Avoiding relegation would have been important but the player would have enjoyed under his former manager.

Tottenham Hotspur It appears likely to lose Guglielmo Vicario in the summer. Roberto De Zerbi seems to have identified a potential replacement, who could also come from Italy.

The Spurs stopper is fast becoming an obvious summer target for Inter Milan. sports witness The negotiations have been widely covered, with individual terms already agreed upon between both sides.

Talks are still pending with Tottenham but the Nerazzurri are confident they can get a discount. Spurs’ potential demotion could also act as a driving force for a summer deal.

Juventus’ Michele Di Gregorio, who has had a strange season, is now in line to replace Vicario. The deal is unlikely to be easy, because tuttosport Take a closer look at the Italian.

Things are improving for Juventus players

Throughout the campaign, Di Gregorio has been the subject of criticism from many Old Lady supporters. There was a time earlier this year when he was dropped from the starting eleven, with Luciano Spalletti preferring Mattia Perin instead.

It worked, as Di Gregorio has been key in the last two games. He saved a penalty against Genoa and also put in an important performance against Atalanta at the weekend.

The newspaper believes Roberto De Zerbi is a big fan of the ex-Monza player. He is keen to bring him to Tottenham in the summer but Di Gregorio only has Juve on his mind.

The recent change in fortunes is a deciding factor as he believes he can continue to make an impact for the club. Even if Juve signs another experienced goalkeeper, he is willing to fight for the club and start regularly.

For this he has been described as ‘worthy of a superhero’, due to which the English are likely to lose interest.

Our take: Things can’t be that certain

Tuttosport has a habit of exaggerating its stance and promoting Juve’s players. This seems to be another case of the same.

Di Gregorio has made quite a change, but if Juve end up with David De Gea or Emi Martínez, there is no chance of him staying in Turin.

These are the two names that have been mentioned by the newspaper and they have proven to be shot-stoppers. He will not be second choice at any club – not even at Juve.

Furthermore, Di Gregorio’s issue has always been inconsistency and he needs to do more to turn his club’s stance around.

This is why Tottenham may still have a chance to sign the 28-year-old. Any move will depend on Premier League survival but the Italian has enough credit in the bank from last season to warrant a move to England.

Juventus are moving to secure the future of midfielder Manuel Locatelli, with Roberto De Zerbi reportedly tipping him as a target Tottenham Hotspur.

tutomercatoweb Report Locatelli will be the next to sign a new contract with Juventus. CEO Damien Comolli himself has announced that the deal will be signed soon.

“In the next few days we may get some news about a new contract, but not about Vlahovic,” He said.

“I’ve always said we’ll talk about Dusan at the end of the season, and that’s what we’ll talk about. There have been discussions, but don’t expect anything before the end of the season.”

contract till 2030

TMW now reports that Manuel Locatelli will sign a two-year contract extension until 2030. The deal has been agreed with Juventus.

His current contract runs until 2028, but the new agreement will extend it. This will also include the option to extend it till 2031. The Italian club have moved quickly to secure the 28-year-old.

He is a key player under Luciano Spalletti, who has made him the leader of the team. He will greatly appreciate the effort taken to secure his future. The move may have come as a result of increased interest from Tottenham.

De Zerbi wants him at Tottenham

Sport Witness covered a report earlier in the month That said, Roberto De Zerbi has named Manuel Locatelli as a key target for the leadership of Tottenham.

It was reported that De Zerbi had spoken to the Tottenham ownership about transfer targets prior to his arrival. He reportedly put forward Locatelli’s name as someone who could help improve the team in the future.

He has a close relationship with the midfielder, having worked with him at Sassuolo between 2019 and 2021. His performances under De Zerbi earned him a transfer to Juventus in 2023. Now he wants a reunion in London if Tottenham avoid relegation.

But it appears that Juventus have moved to close down this possibility. Locatelli will be in the final two years of his deal this summer. Instead, he will now be held hostage with four years remaining, effectively closing the door on his departure.

Roberto De Zerbi faces a big challenge tottenham. He only has a few days left in the job but the pressure is already mounting on the Italian following West Ham’s win.

The London club had to make great efforts to secure a manager.

Initially, De Zerbi was keen to make a decision about his next club during the summer. But Spurs continued to push and sealed the deal, with De Zerbi arriving just weeks after his exit from Marseille. was covered by sports witnessSpurs have to be really convincing.

The former Brighton manager is accustomed to fighting bottom of the table during his time at Sassuolo and even Benevento. Despite De Zerbi’s demanding approach to the game, it perhaps gives Tottenham some hope.

Now, support for the Italian has come from Paolo Di Canio, who has given his thoughts about the move.

There is no doubt that De Zerbi will be successful at Tottenham

spoke to paolo di canio Corriere Della Sera About many topics – including Italians in the Premier League.

In particular, the newspaper asked him about Roberto De Zerbi’s move to Tottenham. The Italian said the 46-year-old had to swim across the Channel to join and he is right to take the job.

“Of course he did, he should have swum across the Channel. After another stormy dismissal, he is moving to a club that spends €250m a year.

“He said that even if they slip in the championship, he will still stay. And I believe you! But he is demanding and good at creating team spirit. He can do well.”

Spurs will have an identity

It is well known that Roberto De Zerbi brings with him a lot of stress. His demanding style can lead to private and public battles, as he is accustomed to calling out the club leadership.

Also, he will give an identity to Tottenham. The club has been going through an identity crisis since the departure of Mauricio Pochettino and De Zerbi could fix that. This will also give results relatively quickly, even if not immediately.

The current team may not be fully capable of playing football his style. But working on the players now will make them better next season. Even if they get demoted, it would make a lot of sense for De Zerbi to stick around as they would be making a sacrifice in the hope of achieving something big.

Anyway, this is an optimistic look.

Brazilian wing-back Wesley has been one of AS Roma’s best players this season, attracting the attention of Tottenham and others. Even if the Italian side put up a wall, Spurs could get a discount on the deal.

The 22-year-old joined the Giallorossi for €25m last summer. This has proven to be a bit of a bargain, as Wesley fits perfectly into Gian Piero Gasperini’s system.

He has played 34 times in all competitions and contributed six goals. Apart from playing as a right wing-back, he has often been the first choice on the left.

This has made him a candidate to play at the World Cup with Brazil, having played regularly since arriving in Rome. Also, he is attracting the attention of many clubs.

Tottenham are among those interested in a transfer.

Roma are putting up barriers

sports witness Manchester City’s interest in Wesley has been covered before asromalive Please provide some more information.

The outlet says Tottenham are tracking the Brazil international, with Liverpool and Arsenal also in the running.

Roma are believed to have placed a price-tag of €60 million on the transfer, suggesting an unwillingness to sell him. This has led to the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City considering other targets but the same is not true for Spurs.

The price seems a bit inflated, as previous reports suggested a €50m valuation. This perhaps indicates that Roma are not in a strong negotiating position and a deal could be done for less than €60m.

Big transfer need could help Tottenham

As things stand, the Giallorossi are outside the top four in Serie A. They have always had issues with Financial Fair Play, having previously signed a settlement agreement with UEFA regarding this.

If they miss out on Europe, they will be desperate for a big sale. It could come in any number of forms, but if Tottenham offer around €50m, or perhaps €5m or even less, Roma will be tempted.

This may prove to be enough for him and his FFP fight. Furthermore, this amount is usually significant for Serie A clubs due to the obvious financial discrepancy between England and Italy.

So if Roberto De Zerbi’s side are serious about Wesley, he would fit perfectly into the Italian’s high-intensity system.

Tottenham Hotspur continue to explore attacking options for their transfer summer, and Marcos Leonardo is a name that is gaining relevance as the club assess young profiles with proven output in different leagues.

Roberto de Zerbi will have big talk on tottenham transferClub and manager are working together

Spurs have leaned towards this strategy in recent windows. They want forwards who can develop, adapt tactically and still contribute immediately. Of course this doesn’t always work out according to plan, given that players like Mathis Tell and Wilson Odobert still have limited output, but the strategy is clear.

Brazilian striker Marcos Leonardo still fits that model, especially when looking at his progress in Brazil, Portugal and Saudi Arabia.

The 22-year-old striker first made his reputation at Santos. There, he scored 54 goals and provided 11 assists in 168 matches. That output, achieved at a young age, made him one of the most productive forwards in Brazil.

After this he moved to Benfica. His time in Portugal was short, but still useful, scoring eight goals and one assist in 24 matches. Although he was not completely satisfied, the numbers showed that he could transfer his game to Europe.

Now at Al-Hilal, Marcos Leonardo continues to perform. He has scored 44 goals and registered five assists in 72 matches. In this season alone he scored 15 goals in 29 matches. That consistency has reestablished his position in the market and brought him back into the focus of European clubs.

As the Brazilian outlet reports, this is where Tottenham comes in RTI game.

tottenham transfer position opens

Interest in Marcos Leonardo is no longer limited to Brazil. Previous approaches from Flamengo and São Paulo did not proceed. Financial demands played a role. However, several European clubs are now monitoring the situation.

Tottenham have been among those who have monitored him for months. His continued production at Al-Hilal has strengthened that interest.

From the Spurs’ point of view, the most important factor is availability. The story indicates that Al-Hilal are ready to sell Marcos Leonardo in the next window. Despite his output, they are not considered a central part of his long-term project.

The Saudi club is trying to recover its investment and potentially make a profit. The valuation is said to be around £55 million (€65 million), which puts him within reach of Premier League teams.

What does this mean for Tottenham

Marcos Leonardo represents a familiar market opportunity for Spurs. He’s young, productive in multiple leagues and potentially available at a set price. Furthermore, his profile suits a team that still needs depth and variety in the final third.

The situation is expected to evolve closer to the summer window. If Tottenham decide to move beyond monitoring, this could soon turn into a concerted effort.

Pervis Estupinan’s struggles at AC Milan could lead to a Tottenham transfer. The left-back is keen on a transfer to London.

sports witness The link has been covered, with the Italian press reporting about the defender’s future over the past two weeks.

Tottenham are believed to have made initial contact, with Milan looking to make capital gains from his sale.

Estupinon has struggled at the Rossoneri since arriving from Brighton. His defensive shortcomings have come under suspicion, with the Ecuadorian player having made a number of high-profile mistakes throughout the campaign.

The trend of return towards Premier League is increasing milanlive Now reporting about the possibility.

Estupinan keen on Tottenham transfer

The outlet is certain that the former Brighton player will leave Milan in the summer. He scored a great goal against Inter Milan a few weeks ago but that did not prove enough to keep him at San Siro.

Atletico Madrid are interested in the full-back but a return to England seems the more likely idea right now.

A number of teams are keen on him, however, the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi by Tottenham could tip things in their favour.

This makes Estupinan keen on a move to Spurs, with the Italian ‘ready to welcome’ the 28-year-old under his wing. The new manager has ‘particularly praised’ the Milan player, who is already making plans for next season.

Fulham and West Ham have been there before mentioned Even as a lover. Now, it feels like Tottenham is a much more likely destination.

Deal could revive Estupinan career

The move to London could prove to be game-changing for Estupinan. Under Max Allegri, he has been forced to do a lot of the dirty work and this has reduced his offensive contribution, essentially exposing his weaknesses.

Due to the Italian system, Estupinon would fly forward and attack positions in a very organized setup. The way his career has been going, he needs it again and it is no surprise he wants a move to Tottenham.

A big reason behind Manuel Locatelli’s success as a footballer is Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi.

The two could now potentially be reunited at Tottenham in the summer.

The Italian has had an impressive season for Juventus and has made a real impression with his ability on the ball.

Currently the club captain, Locatelli has played 39 times in all competitions, and has also contributed five goals. His strength lies in dictating the pace of the game from deep and this skill was evident last season as well.

The 28-year-old had impressive performances at Sassuolo between 2019 and 2021, when they were managed by De Zerbi. The Italian brought out the best of Locatelli’s technical abilities and qualified him for a trip to Turin.

With De Zerbi now at Tottenham, he could bring the midfielder to England.

Locatelli held discussions with Tottenham

IT migration market The report adds that before taking charge at Tottenham, De Zerbi held a major meeting with the London club’s ownership. During that time, he discussed potential transfer targets and his general long-term vision for the club.

He put forward the name of Manuel Locatelli as someone who could help him improve this Spurs side, especially if they avoid relegation.

Avoiding relegation is De Zerbi’s main objective at the moment but the Italian is already making some plans for the future.

Locatelli’s current contract at Juve expires in 2028. Even though the Old Lady have attempted to make progress on a renewal, nothing has officially happened and this could give other clubs a big opportunity in the summer.

sports witness Manchester United’s relationship with the player has been covered, with the Red Devils’ scouts having been impressed by his impact this season.

Our opinion: Locatelli would be an excellent signing for Spurs

Throughout the season, Tottenham lacked a technically proficient midfielder who could beat the press, dictate play and advance the ball. Conor Gallagher was signed in January but is the complete opposite in profile.

Locatelli, meanwhile, is a perfect fit. De Zerbi knows this, as he watched the player operate in the midfield two during his time at Sassuolo. That’s when Locatelli really reached a new level, showing how his passing ability can really escape the opposition press.

That’s what Tottenham will need under the Italian, who always demands elite players. Locatelli is 28 years old, in his prime and has quickly become a very reliable leader.

Spurs should not hesitate to sign him if the opportunity arises.
