We at Spurs Web have relayed various reports over the last month that have backed Tottenham to reignite their interest in Kelly after missing out on the centre-back in the summer (GiveMeSport).

While the likes of Liverpool (Football Insider) and Arsenal (Tuttosport) are also said to be eyeing a move for the 25-year-old, the most serious interest appears to be coming from Italy, with Juventus and Milan both said to be exploring January moves for the defender (Fabrizio Romano).

AC Milan to do battle with Spurs for Lloyd Kelly

Bargiggia has now reiterated that a centre-back is at the top of Milan’s wishlist ahead of January and that the Serie A club are expected to push ahead with a move for Kelly.

He suggests that the Cherries would be willing to sell the defender for  €18m (£15.7m), given his contract situation.

However, he adds that Stefano Pioli’s men will face ‘very fierce’ competition for the centre-back, with Tottenham ‘above all’.

Spurs Web Opinion

If it is a choice between Milan and Tottenham, one would think that Kelly would much prefer moving to the North London side. The big question is whether Spurs or anyone else is prepared to pay £15m-£20m for a player who has six months left on his contract.

We at Spurs Web have relayed several reports over the last couple of months which have talked up the chances of Tottenham swooping for Gimenez in January.

This includes an update from The Mirror on October 29 which claimed that the Lilywhites are convinced after scouting the Mexican extensively that he is the ideal option to fill Harry Kane’s shoes.

The report added that the Premier League side are willing to meet Feyenoord’s asking price for the prolific marksman in January.

However, Spurs are not alone in their admiration of Gimenez, with the likes of Real Madrid (Fichajes) and Barcelona (Sport) also credited with an interest in the player over the last few weeks.

AC Milan enter the race for Santiago Gimenez

If TuttoSport’s latest update is to be believed, Spurs now have even more to contend with for Gimenez’s signature, with Milan eyeing a move for the player.

It is explained that Rossoneri are keen on adding a number nine to replace the departing Olivier Giroud in January and their top target is Montpellier’s Akor Adams.

However, with the Ligue 1 club not willing to entertain offers for the Nigerian, the Italian giants are allegedly ready to turn their attention to the Feyenoord star, whom they have watched closely.

Spurs Web Opinion

The interest in Gimenez is likely to mount as we get closer to the January transfer window. The one potential positive for Spurs is that none of the other ‘big six’ Premier League clubs appear to be vying for the Mexican’s signature. Tottenham should be able to outbid the likes of Milan and Barca, who are not in a great financial position.

It has been well documented that Spurs are prioritising signing a central defender in January and Kelly is reported to be one of the names at the top of the Lilywhites’ wishlist (GiveMeSport).

The North London club are thought to be facing competition from the likes of Juventus (Fabrizio Romano), AC Milan (Calciomercato.it) and Liverpool (Football Insider) for the centre-back.

The 25-year-old’s current deal at the Vitality Stadium runs out next summer (Transfermarkt) but there have been some suggestions recently that the Cherries would rather hold on to him and risk losing him on a free transfer since he is central to their hopes of staying in the top flight (talkSPORT).

AC Milan plan on making Lloyd Kelly summer move

TMW have now offered an update on Milan’s pursuit of Kelly, stating that the Serie A club’s interest in the Bournemouth star is ‘very real’.

However, it is alleged that the Rossoneri are aware that the defender does not plan to renew his contract on the south coast and are thus prepared to wait until next summer to sign him on a free transfer.

Finally, the publication adds that Kelly is not the only centre-back on Milan’s radar, with Stefano Pioli’s men said to be also looking at alternatives, including FC Basel’s Finn van Breemen.

Spurs Web Opinion

While Bournemouth might prefer to hang on to Kelly until next summer, one would think that an offer of around £20m for a player with six months left on his contract would be too good for them to turn down.

However, it remains to be seen whether Spurs or any other side would be willing to make such an offer in January.

The post Report: Update on Lloyd Kelly transfer situation amid Tottenham links appeared first on Spurs Web - Tottenham Hotspur Football News.

Tottenham completed a £15 million deal to sign Udogie from Udinese in August of last year with the left-back remaining at the Serie A outfit for the 2022/23 campaign as part of the agreement which was brokered by the club’s former managing director of football Fabio Paratici (Sky Sports).

While the youngster had impressed in the Serie A, it is fair to say that he has taken his game to a different level since arriving at Spurs, now that he is surrounded by better players.

The 20-year-old has thrived in Ange Postecoglou’s system and he also demonstrated his qualities for Italy when he was handed his first two caps by Luciano Spalletti last month.

Tottenham won a contested race for Destiny Udogie

Antonelli has now lamented the fact that Italian clubs are not willing to bet on young players such as Udogie.

He told TuttoMercatoWeb: “If there is a limit that Italian clubs still cannot overcome today, it is the courage to invest (in young players).

“I invite anyone and challenge them to tell me which Italian club didn’t want Udogie. They all wanted him. The only one who accelerated the deal was (Udinese owner) Gino Pozzo. He bought him for 2.8 million euros and sold him after ten months for 26 million euros.

“Now, with what he is doing, he doesn’t have a defined price. But we spoke with Juventus, with Milan, with Inter. Everyone liked Destiny. Everyone wanted him but, at that moment, there wasn’t the impetus to do the deal. We don’t invest in Italians (in Serie A).”

Spurs Web Opinion

Out of all the signings Paratici made during his time at Spurs, the Udogie one was arguably the most impressive, with the left-back undoubtedly destined to become one of the best in the world in his position.

The speculation linking Kelly with a move to Spurs has intensified recently, with GiveMeSport reporting a couple of weeks ago that the North London club have made ‘detailed checks’ on the Cherries star ahead of January.

Last week, 90 min also named the 25-year-old as one of the central defenders at the top of Tottenham’s wishlist ahead of January.

However, a few days ago Fabrizio Romano revealed that Kelly had also emerged as a target for Milan and Juventus, with the Serie A sides viewing the Englishman as an ‘interesting’ option since his contract runs out next summer.

AC Milan are pushing to sign Lloyd Kelly

Calciomercato.it have now provided an update on Milan’s pursuit of Kelly, explaining that technical director Geoffrey Moncada has personally flown to England to watch the centre-back in action this season.

It is said that the Rossoneri do not expect the deal to be straightforward as Bournemouth do not wish to let the defender leave midway into the season.

Further, the report adds that Milan face competition from Spurs, who have ‘not let go of Kelly’ after failing to sign him in the summer while Juventus and Liverpool are also said to be eyeing the player.

The publication adds that Stefano Pioli’s side are not prepared to give up on the Bournemouth star and are now ‘strongly pressing’ for his services.

Spurs Web Opinion

By the sounds of it, it appears as if Bournemouth do not mind hanging on to Kelly until next summer and losing him on a free. That makes sense, given that preserving their Premier League status would be the Cherries’ number one priority.

The post Report: Tottenham and AC Milan are battling it out to sign centre-back appeared first on Spurs Web - Tottenham Hotspur Football News.

It was reported by The Athletic on transfer deadline day this summer that Spurs had made an offer of £20m for Kelly, which was turned down by Bournemouth.

The outlet explained that the Cherries were reluctant to let the defender leave so late in the window since they did not have time to bring in a suitable replacement.

Since then, multiple sources, including Matt Barlow (Daily Mail) and Dean Jones (GiveMeSport), have claimed that Tottenham could reignite their interest in the 25-year-old when the transfer window reopens in January, with the player’s current deal at the Vitality Stadium running out next summer.

Juve and Milan enter the race for Lloyd Kelly

However, Romano has now taken to social media to state that the Bournemouth star has emerged as a target for both Juve and Milan.

The journalist states that while the Rossoneri see the English centre-back as an ‘interesting’ option, the Old Lady have also asked to be kept informed of the player’s situation.

Finally, Romano adds that the Cherries have no option to extend Kelly’s current contract which runs out in 2024.

AC Milan are working on deal to sign Lloyd Kelly in January, considered interesting centre back for present and future.

Understand Juventus are also interested and informed on conditions of the deal.

Spurs Web Opinion

Kelly would be free to sign a pre-contract agreement with a non-English club in January. Juve and Milan might have already reached out to the defender’s representatives regarding the same.

Bournemouth would prefer to sell him for a small fee in January over losing him for nothing next summer but I wonder if the centre-back might be put off from joining Spurs due to fears of a lack of game time at N17.

The post Fabrizio Romano says two Serie A clubs have entered race for Spurs centre-back target appeared first on Spurs Web - Tottenham Hotspur Football News.

Despite being a product of the club’s academy, Japhet Tanganga has not really progressed to the level Tottenham Hotspur would hope, it seems. The defender was little more than a peripheral figure under both Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte.

The former gave Tanganga his big break at Spurs, but under Conte, the player found his opportunities drastically limited.

As a result, Tanganga had been consistently linked with a move away from Tottenham, with interest from Serie A clubs in January and over the summer. That interest failed to turn into a transfer, however, and Tanganga is now on loan at German side FC Augsburg for the season.

The problem is, the 24-year-old is currently injured so has yet to feature for the Bundesliga outfit, but he is due back in the near future.

Tanganga had two moves fall through in recent years

Now, De Fanti has been speaking to TuttoMercatoWeb about Tanganga and the reasons why he is not at an Italian team right now.

De Fanti said: “His arrival [to Torino] was linked to an exit. The negotiation began when [Alessandro] Buongiorno was about to go to Atalanta. [Davide] Vagnati has always had a great passion for Tanganga, a defender who debuted with Mourinho and also played with Conte, who blocked his transfer to AC Milan in 2022.

“It then happened that Buongiorno did not go to Atalanta and the negotiation fell through. In the end, we defined the transfer on loan with the right of redemption to Augsburg, a German club very oriented to take players from the Premier League.”

Spurs Web Opinion

I feel for Tanganga, as he has never been given a proper chance at Spurs but was then not allowed to leave, either. Hopefully, he can get back fit as soon as possible and show what he can do at Augsburg.

While Richarlison has been filling in as the lead striker for the start of the Premier League campaign, there is an expectation that the North London club will move to bolster their goalscoring options before the transfer window closes.

Various names have been linked to Spurs already with regards to their attacking needs. One name who was thought to be on the radar is Porto‘s Mehdi Taremi (Sacha Tavolieri).

Spurs are still in the hunt for Mehdi Taremi

Recently, it was suggested Tottenham were moving on in their search for a striker and would no longer look at Taremi (CaughtOffside). However, the latest word from Italy claims the Premier League outfit are still in the race. 

CalcioMercato state that AC Milan are trying to sign Taremi, but are making very little progress. Their offer of €15m (£12.9m) was deemed far too low by Porto, mainly because they can only claim 85% of the transfer fee for themselves.

The sell-on clause dictates that the Portuguese side are keen to attract offers closer to €30m (£25.7m) to let the Israeli striker go.

This is where Spurs come in. Apparently, Taremi still has plenty of interest in England, and “in particular” from Tottenham.

It is thought the Lilywhites could be one to watch when it comes to Taremi’s future being decided during the current transfer window.

Spurs Web Opinion

While Taremi doesn’t really fit the profile of the younger talent we have been signing this window, one thing is for certain – he knows how to score goals.

Maybe his experience and natural finishing ability would work as a stop-gap until we can sign or develop a more fitting replacement for Harry Kane.

Romero had a promising first season at Tottenham following his switch from Atalanta in the summer of 2021 but much like the rest of the Spurs side, the centre-back struggled during the second half of last season.

LONDON, ENGLAND – AUGUST 19: Cristian Romero of Tottenham Hotspur looks on during the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on August 19, 2023 in London, England. (Photo by Chloe Knott – Danehouse/Getty Images)

Although he played an important role in Argentina’s historic World Cup win in November of last year, his struggles at club level saw many question whether he is an elite central defender (talkSPORT).

In an interview with The Athletic earlier this summer, the 25-year-old admitted that he was disappointed with the level of his performances last season and remarked that he is keen to showcase his best under Ange Postecoglou this campaign.

Romero has certainly had a promising start to the new season alongside a new defensive partner in Micky van de Ven, and Spurs fans will be hoping that his performance against Manchester United is a sign of things to come.

Cristian Romero is already a role model to others

Young Argentine defender Pellegrino, who recently completed a switch to Milan, has said that he rates that Tottenham man as one of the best in the business.

After signing for the Rossoneri, The 21-year-old told Milan TV (as relayed by TuttoMercatoWeb): ” My idol is Sergio Ramos, and today I like ‘El Cuti’ Romero. For me, he is a complete defender, and I try to follow him.”

Spurs Web Opinion

One can understand why Romero would be idolised in Argentina, having played an important part in their nation’s World Cup triumph. 

However, although the 25-year-old has the attributes to evolve into a top-class centre-back, he is far from the best in the world at the moment. He has to have a couple of consistent campaigns in a row to be in that conversation.

Tottenham and Barcelona have been in talks over a deal for Lenglet since the start of the summer but it emerged on Wednesday that the Premier League side could face competition for the centre-back from Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr (Mundo Deportivo).

However, Sport later revealed that although the Saudi club were willing to meet Barca’s €15m (£13m) asking price for the Frenchman, which Spurs were not willing to do, the defender was prioritising a return to North London over a switch to the Middle East.

AC Milan enter the picture for Clement Lenglet

If Gazzetta’s latest update is to be believed, Spurs could not face competition from Italy for Lenglet’s services.

The report claims that Milan are looking for a defender to replace Matteo Gabbia, who left to join Villarreal on loan last month, with the Serie A side said to have identified the Barcelona star as a target.

It is alleged that Rosseneri value Lenglet’s experience and believe that they can sign the 28-year-old for just €10m (£8.6m).

Spurs Web Opinion

Barca appear to have got their wish of a bidding war for Lenglet’s signature. However, I doubt Milan would be in a position to pay anywhere near the salary that the Frenchman currently earns at Barca, which is why the player will likely favour a switch to Spurs.

Since TyC Sports reporter Cesar Luiz Melo first broke the news regarding Tottenham’s interest in Veliz on Wednesday, plenty of outlets have talked up the chances of Spurs winning the race for the Argentine sensation.

Fabrizio Romano subsequently revealed that the 19-year-old had agreed personal terms with the Premier League side ahead of a potential move to N17.

Meanwhile, Relevo journalist Matteo Moretto even asserted that the negotiations are at an advanced stage and that they could be concluded in a matter of hours.

Not yet a done deal for Alejo Veliz to Tottenham

However, Osman has now taken to social media to reveal that Tottenham have not yet won the race for Veliz, but he did state that the Lilywhites are at the front of the queue for the teenager’s signature, ahead of both AC Milan and Torino.

Osman added that Spurs are willing to loan him back to Rosario until January, with the Argentine club alleged to want £12m for the player.

Spurs Web Opinion

Tottenham should not have any problems outbidding both the Serie A sides for Veliz. As long as the 19-year-old wants to make a move to N17, one would expect the North London side to wrap up the deal sooner rather than later.

Tanganga could be back of interest to Serie A clubs

Italian clubs are only permitted to register two non-EU players each season, but could now look to target more players from the United Kingdom to bolster their squads, now the new rule has come into force for the season ahead.

As a result, Tanganga could now become a target for AC Milan and Atalanta, with his future at Tottenham increasingly in doubt.

Football.London claimed back in May that the academy graduate could look to leave Tottenham this summer and has been previously linked with a move to Serie A.

Last summer, Tanganga was strongly linked with a loan move to AC Milan, however, an agreement couldn’t be reached on a potential future transfer fee (Football.London).

Corriere Dello Sport (27/7/23)

Tanganga made just seven appearances in all competitions for Tottenham last season, having found first team opportunities hard to come by under Antonio Conte, Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason with the likes of Eric Dier, Cristian Romero and even Davinson Sanchez ahead of him in the central defensive pecking order (transfermarkt).

SpursWeb Opinion

Tanganga caught the eye on his Premier League debut against Liverpool while Jose Mourinho was in charge, however, unfortunately a series of injuries hampered his development and chance at a regular first-team place and struggles with consistency after long spells watching on from the sidelines.

A move to Italy or the likes of Luton Town is exactly what he needs to get his career back on track.

90 min explain that Tottenham and Newcastle were among those who showed an interest in snapping up the player but it was AC Milan who moved quickly to strike a quick agreement with him.

Kamada is back on the market after Tottenham links

However, since then, there have been some big changes in the Rossoneri structure, with Paolo Maldini being sacked from his position as technical director while Frederic Massara also left his role as sporting director.

The latter was replaced by Antonio D’Ottavio and it turns out that Milan’s new hierarchy and Kamada now have ‘different ideas’ about the future.

So despite the 26-year-old agreeing to a  move, the Italian giants have now reportedly pulled out of the deal.

The publication adds that Kamada is now on the lookout for a new club, with the midfielder alleged to have been offered to both Napoli and Inter Milan.

Spurs Web Opinion

Kamada would be an excellent addition to the Tottenham squad as he can cover for James Maddison in the number eight role while also being able to operate as part of the front three if necessary.

However, the Japanese international might feel that he is not likely to get much game time at Spurs.

Tottenham seem to be favourites for Maddison deal

This update comes a couple of days after Football Insider reported that Spurs might have an advantage in the race for the 26-year-old as Newcastle only value the attacking midfielder at £30m.

The Northern Echo had previously reported on Monday that Spurs are the ‘favourites’ to land Maddison as they are willing to offer him a higher salary than Newcastle while the player also prefers living in London.

Spurs Web Opinion

It appears as if Maddison is seen as a priority signing by Ange Postecoglou while he is one of just several options on Newcastle’s radar. 

So, one would expect Spurs to get this deal over the line but I doubt the North London club would consider paying more than £40m for the attacking midfielder, given that he has only one year left on his contract.

RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins has taken to Twitter to reveal that while Tottenham have made contact over the possibility of signing the 23-year-old, talks with Italian clubs are at a far more advance stage.

Ndicka is the subject of two contractual offers from Serie A clubs with AC Milan having offered a five-year contract while Jose Mourinho‘s Roma have also tabled a five-year deal but with better financial terms which currently makes them the frontrunner.

He was part of the Frankfurt side that faced off with Tottenham in the Champions League last year with both sides progressing out of Group D to the knockout rounds.

Ndicka has spent five seasons with the German club and has made 163 appearances in all competitions for them (transfermarkt), however, finds himself out of contract at the end of the month which is making him the subject of plenty of interest from potential suitors.

Ndicka is a promising talent and one who Tottenham rightly have on their radar, however, it remains to be seen whether Daniel Levy is prepared to match or better the salary offered by Roma.

With Ange Postecoglou having only just joined and a sporting director still to be appointed, Tottenham are playing catch-up in relation to their transfer activity. 

You would have to assume that many players would certainly have been delaying any strong interest shown by the Premier League side until the full picture is clear of what is happening there going forward.

The publication adds that the 23-year-old will thus return to Juventus this summer but with the Bianconeri also unwilling to keep him, he could be on the move once again.

The report says that AC Milan have expressed an interest in signing Kulusevski, with the Rossoneri said to have identified him as a potential replacement for Brahim Diaz.

However, it is explained that the former Atalanta star would first have to renew his contract before leaving the Allianz Stadium as his current deal in Turin is set to run out in 2024.

It is alleged that any switch to the San Siro for Kulusevski would have to be an initial loan deal with an option to buy.

Spurs Web Opinion

Even if Tottenham deem the £30m fee for Kulusevski to be excessive, one would expect the club to sit down at the negotiating table with Juve to potentially reduce the fee.

I personally believe that the Swede would be a bargain at that price despite his recent struggles and I would be extremely surprised if the North London club do not activate the option.

Spurs Web Opinion

Tottenham are unlikely to get Maddison, given that we look set to miss out on Champions League and Europa League qualification. So, one would expect the club to pull out all the stops for Kamada. 

This might be another situation where the fact that we do no have a sporting director or a head coach has given other clubs an advantage.

Unless we sort out the situation soon, we risk being left behind by others, thus potentially having to play catch-up for the majority of the summer transfer window.

However, things have not quite worked out for the Brazilian star in his debut season with the Lilywhites.

Richarlison has scored just three goals for Spurs this season and only got his first league goal for the club at the end of last month (Transfermarkt).

Injuries have plagued the 26-year-old’s first season with the club, but Richarlison has also struggled to establish himself as a first-team regular and find consistency.

Most would expect Richarlison to now knuckle down and look to impress a new manager ahead of his sophomore season, which would hopefully be a big improvement on this term.

However, fresh reports from Il Romanista suggest the player could find himself leaving North London this summer, and Serie A could be a possible destination.

Apparently, Roma, Inter Milan, and AC Milan are all keen on the idea of a loan move for Richarlison in what is believed could be a good chance for the player to “relaunch himself” in Italy.

Given the huge sum of money Spurs paid for Richarlison, it’s claimed there is a chance the club may be keen to “avoid his devaluation” by allowing him to leave temporarily and show what he can do. The report suggests a loan-to-buy deal could suit all parties.

Spurs Web Opinion

We definitely should not be looking to sell or loan Richarlison this summer.

He’s had a tough season but has shown a lot of passion and hard work, and I have a feeling he will come good next year.

I would be very disappointed to see him go so soon.

The report stated that while it is unclear who Spurs were watching, they might have also been scouting Abraham, who they could pursue this summer as Kane’s replacement should the England captain leave.

90 min have now also confirmed the presence of Tottenham representatives during Milan’s 1-1 draw at the Italian capital.

However, they posit that it is not Abraham who Spurs were keeping an eye on but rather Tonali, who has come on leaps and bounds over the last couple of seasons since establishing himself as a fixture in the middle of the park for the Rossoneri.

The report states that the 22-year-old defensive midfielder is also on the radars of London rivals, Arsenal and Chelsea, ahead of the summer window.

Tonali might have been a target identified by Paratici and Conte, given their expertise in the Italian market but if it is true that Spurs are continuing to scout the Milan star, then an offer might be on the cards this summer despite the Italian duo departing Spurs.
