Tottenham Hotspur fans will be pleased to hear the latest developments at Juventus regarding Guglielmo Vicario.Vicario joined Juventus on a season-long loan deal, with the Serie A giants having an option to buy the goalkeeper for £8.5m next summer.The Italy international came in for plenty of criticism during his final season at Tottenham before eventually losing out on the number one shirt to Antonin Kinsky, but he has made a bright start to his time in Turin.In fact, Juventus and Italy legend Gianluigi Buffon has praised the Spurs loanee, labelling him a ‘winner’, with the legendary goalkeeper putting the Italian’s poor form last season down to Tottenham’s struggles.Buffon said about Vicario: “He’s judged by many people who don’t fully understand the goalkeeper’s role. Vicario was heavily criticised in his last year at Tottenham, but he’s coming off a formative experience; he was a key player and a winner in the Premier League. Last season he paid the price, because when a team goes bad, 99.99% of the time, the goalkeeper also suffers.”Photo by sportinfoto/DeFodi Images/DeFodi via Getty ImagesJuventus have already decided to pay Tottenham £8.5m for Guglielmo VicarioAccording to a report in Gazzetta dello Sport (as relayed by CalcioMercato.it), the Juventus management have been very impressed with the Spurs loanee and have already decided on his future.The outlet says Luciano Spalletti’s side have made up their mind to exercise their £8.5m option to buy Vicario at the end of the season.It is explained that once they activate the purchase option, the goalkeeper will sign a three-year deal at the Allianz Stadium until 2030.The report suggests that it has taken only five matches for Vicario to convince the Bianconeri decision-makers that he is good enough to be the club’s number one.The publication adds that the Italian international ‘will wear the black and white jersey for several seasons’, with the club foreseeing the Spurs loanee remaining their number one for ‘some time to come’.Vicario admits ‘some dynamics did not align’ at SpursThe experienced goalkeeper admitted at the start of this month that he and Tottenham were not aligned towards the end, which is why it was time to end his journey in North London.However, Vicario admitted that his three years at Spurs were crucial for his development and helped him become a better goalkeeper.When asked about why he left Tottenham, the former Empoli man said: “I don’t like to talk about the past or what should or could have been done. There were some dynamics that didn’t align, probably for various reasons that don’t make sense to mention now. I want to focus on the present and try to maintain balance in this new adventure.“I hope I can say I’m more mature and more aware, with a different set of experiences. Going abroad opens you up: you experience different cultures, languages, situations, different dressing rooms, different methodologies.“I’ll definitely arrive more complete, even if without the path I’ve taken previously it wouldn’t have been possible. I’m arriving at a club with a huge history, structure, and ambition, and this will be the challenge that drives me every day.”READ MORE: Ally McCoist disagrees with Tim Sherwood on Tottenham’s treatment of RicharlisonThe post Tottenham receive £8.5m boost for 2027 transfer fund after development out of Italy appeared first on Spurs Web.
