Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a number of goalkeepers in recent months as they look to bring him a quality replacement for Hugo Lloris.
The 36-year-old Frenchman has been a shadow of his former self this season and his error-prone performances have attracted a lot of criticism.
The goalkeeping department is one area that needs improvement this summer and Tottenham must look to bring in a quality shot-stopper.
A report from Calciomercato claims that Tottenham are now ‘interested’ in signing Onana from Inter Milan. They will face competition from London rivals Chelsea.
The Blues could lose Edouard Mendy at the end of the season, and Onana would be a quality replacement for the Senegal international.
Chelsea certainly have more financial resources compared to Tottenham, and it remains to be seen whether the north London giants can fend off the competition from the Blues and secure the 27-year-old’s signature.
The report adds that an offer of around €35-40 million could convince Inter Milan to sanction the goalkeeper’s departure this summer. The reported asking price should be affordable for clubs like Tottenham and Chelsea.
Lloris has cost his side valuable points with his errors this season and Tottenham simply cannot afford to head into next season with him as their first-choice goalkeeper.
They have been linked with other players as well and it will be interesting to see who they end up signing eventually.
Onana has proven himself in the Italian league and he certainly has the quality to succeed in the Premier League as well.
