Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario was on the cusp of a move back to Italy, but despite talks reaching an advanced stage, Inter Milan turned elsewhere.
However, the Spurs shot-stopper is still attracting interest back home, with the 29-year-old now on Juventus’ radar, per Gianluca DiMarzio.
After failing to attract their initial targets, they now have eyes on the Tottenham man, but there is no confirmation of whether he is interested in the move.
Tottenham were expected to move on from Vicario this summer. He had an excellent debut campaign but has struggled over the past two seasons.
Antonin Kinsky has usurped Vicario’s place in the first team, forcing the Italian international to consider his future.
Interestingly, Vicario is not the only Tottenham player attracting interest from the Black and Whites.
They have been keeping tabs on defender Radu Dragusin, who needs to leave the club in search of consistent playing time after a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Tottenham should look to capitalise on the interest and secure permanent sales of both players.
Vicario deserves credit for the standards he set during his first season in north London, but it has been downhill since then.
His value is unlikely to increase, especially after two inconsistent campaigns in which he has lost his starting spot.
Spurs have already shown faith in the younger goalkeeper, and the focus should now be on building around him rather than keeping an unhappy back-up on the books.
A loan move (which the Italians have a penchant for) would only delay the inevitable.
Tottenham need clarity in the goalkeeping department and should pursue a straightforward transfer to secure a respectable fee while interest remains strong.
The funds could then be reinvested into signing a proven goalkeeper capable of genuinely challenging Kinsky for the number one shirt.
