Inter Milan legend names £26m Tottenham star as ideal summer signing to replace 37-year-old

2 hours ago 14

An Inter Milan legend has urged the Nerazzurri to bring a Tottenham Hotspur star through the door in the summer.

Despite plenty of speculation regarding potential exits in January, Brennan Johnson was the only first-team player who left Hotspur Way mid-season.

However, there could be a lot more exits at the end of the season, with reports indicating that Spurs are eyeing an ambitious squad rebuild in the summer.

One senior Tottenham star continues to be heavily linked with a move to the Serie A, and one club legend wants to see the transfer happen.

Walter Zenga wants Inter Milan to sign Guglielmo Vicario from Tottenham

It has been widely reported that Guglielmo Vicario is on Inter Milan’s radar as the club plans for life after the ageing Yann Sommer.

Walter Zenga, who was one of Inter’s greatest goalkeepers and appeared 328 times between the sticks for the Nerazzurri, believes that his former club should go after the Tottenham man.

When asked who should take over the gloves from Sommer, Zenga, who now manages Serie C side Siracusa, told Gazzetta dello Sport (as relayed by talkSPORT): “With an Italian goalkeeper: Vicario and Marco Carnesecchi in the front row, then Elia Caprile.”

Inter may face competition from rivals for Vicario

Over the last few days, reports from Italy have claimed that Juventus have joined Inter in the race for the Spurs number one.

According to some sources, Juve and Inter would have to pay over €30m (£26m) to sign Vicario from Tottenham in the summer.

It has also been reported in the British press that the Lilywhites have identified a £50m-rated Premier League star as a potential replacement for Vicario.
