Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly shown interest in signing Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso, according to Sky Sports Italy’s Gianluca Di Marzio.
AC Milan are also believed to be pursuing the player, with both clubs having approached Cambiaso’s agent.
Juventus are said to be demanding a transfer fee of €25 million for the talented defender.
Cambiaso joined Juventus from Genoa last summer in a €9 million deal and was subsequently loaned out to Bologna for the season.
The 23-year-old impressed during his loan spell, making 32 appearances and providing three assists.
His versatility in playing in either full-back role caught the attention of Tottenham and AC Milan.
According to a recent report in Calciomercato, Juventus see Cambiaso as an ideal player to compete for the role in the upcoming season.
The Italian club’s decision to trust in the young defender highlights their belief in his potential.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are actively seeking a full-back, particularly for the left-back position.
Ryan Sessegnon is expected to miss the start of the season due to a recurring hamstring issue that required surgery.
Additionally, Ivan Perisic is strongly linked with a summer exit, leaving Tottenham with only 20-year-old Destiny Udogie, who was signed from Udinese last season.
While manager Ange Postecoglou is reportedly convinced of Udogie’s abilities, Tottenham recognises the need for another left-back, preferably someone more experienced, to bolster the squad.
Tottenham have had a busy transfer window so far having already secured four signings. They have already secured the signing of three attackers in James Maddison, Manor Solomon and Dejan Kulusevski. They have also signed a replacement for Lloris in Guglielmo Vicario.
Defense seems to be next in line for a overhaul.
