Tottenham show interest in £16.5m Juventus centre-back West Ham also want
Tottenham are reportedly interested in signing Juventus defender Federico Gatti, with the Italian giants potentially open to a sale.
The 24/25 season for Tottenham Hotspur has revealed their lack of depth in defence. However, new signing Kevin Danso, Ben Davies and make-shift defender Archie Gray, have since helped the Lilywhites manage their defensive crisis.
Despite the club picking up a few wins in recent weeks, their main centre-back pair, van de Ven and Romero remain sidelined for at least two weeks.
Reports have now emerged that the Lilywhites are looking to add one more centre-back to their ranks this summer.
Tottenham Hotspur show interest in Federico Gatti
According to TV Play, Tottenham Hotspur want Juventus defender Federico Gatti who could be available for £16.5m this summer.
The publication has stated that the recent Champions League defeat to PSV Eindhoven has heightened tensions at Juventus, potentially triggering a significant squad overhaul this summer.
Despite being a regular starter this season, Federico Gatti may be among those let go, as Juventus prioritizes other players and targets new signings, including Feyenoord’s David Hancko a player Spurs have also been linked with.
Tottenham face competition for Gatti’s signature
The outlet has also revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are not the only Premier League side interested in landing Gatti this summer. They report that West Ham United are also willing to secure the services of the £16.5m Serie A defender.
It has also been revealed that the Juventus man previously expressed a desire to stay at Juventus, after rejecting a move to Nottingham Forest in January. However, it is reported that he may be open to a Premier League experience this summer.
