“Test the water” – Journalist speculates that Tottenham could revisit interest in Juventus midfielder

The midfielder is another area where Tottenham Hotspur would like to see an upgrade this summer. Last January, the north London club added Rodrigo Bentancur to accompany Pierre-Emile Højbjerg. 

One of the players constantly linked to reinforce the midfield since the arrival of Managing Director of Football Fabio Paratici is Juventus’ Weston McKennie. The club chief brought over the American during his time with the Serie A side, and perhaps a reunion might occur.

During a Q&A session, Football.London’s Alasdair Gold spoke about the possibility of McKennie heading to north London since Spurs inquired with his representatives about him during the January transfer window. 

“I know Paratici spoke to McKennie’s representatives about a future move in January. If the USA international is available this summer then I would expect Spurs to test the water as he would tick a lot of boxes for the squad,” Gold said. 

It will be interesting to see if Paratici brings another player from Juventus that he believes highly in after reuniting with Bentancur and forward Dejan Kulusevski. These two moves helped them finish in the top four. 

Perhaps Paratici is prepared to go to the Juventus well and add the 23-year-old this summer.
