Tottenham suffer setback in attempt to sell £20m senior star, but Leeds could help

Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur have received a big blow in their hopes of completing a quick sale of Guglielmo Vicario, who has been heavily linked with a return to Serie A.Vicario is reportedly on the radar of Juventus, and it appeared over the last week as if the goalkeeper’s proposed switch to Turin was gathering steam.In fact, Corriere dello Sport suggested a couple of days ago that Juve were confident of securing a discounted deal for the Tottenham star.The report claimed that the 29-year-old was viewed as a ‘cost-effective’ option and had moved to the top of the Bianconeri’s wishlist, ahead of both Emiliano Martinez and Mile Svilar.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramBlow for Tottenham as Juventus approach Guglielmo Vicario alternativeHowever, in a blow to Tottenham’s hopes of shifting Vicario to the Serie A giants, it has now emerged that Juve have expressed an interest in a goalkeeper who has shone at the World Cup.According to Gianluigi Longari, Juve have now enquired about the availability of Japan international Zion Suzuki.The journalist says that Luciano Spalletti’s side are evaluating the Parma man, but they are not the only ones interested, with Leeds and other Premier League clubs also considering an approach.Juve’s interest in Suzuki comes as bad news for Spurs, especially with Inter Milan having also pulled out of the race for Vicario. Why Spurs may struggle to get the fee they want for VicarioReports indicate that the Lilywhites want £20m for the former Empoli goalkeeper, but they may have a tough time getting that fee.Napoli have also been credited with an interest in Vicario, but there is nothing to suggest that the Partenopei have made a concrete approach for the Spurs number one.Unless Tottenham can get a bidding war going for the Italy international, they may be forced to accept a loss on the £17m they paid for him three years ago.READ MORE: When Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes could make Tottenham debuts after £185m splurgeThe post Tottenham suffer setback in attempt to sell £20m senior star, but Leeds could help appeared first on Spurs Web.
