Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario has been linked with a move away from the North London club in recent days.
Guglielmo Vicario has been quite impressive for Tottenham since joining them, and his performances have resulted in interest from other clubs. However, a report from Calciomercato has stated that Spurs have no plans to sanction his departure, and the goalkeeper is not pushing for an exit either.
There have been rumours that clubs in Italy are keen on signing him and bringing him back to his homeland. He has already established himself as an indispensable asset for the North London club, and it would be quite surprising if Tottenham sanctioned his departure.
Vicario is the first-choice goalkeeper at Tottenham, and the North London club would have to bring in a top-class goalkeeper before selling the Italian. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. The report states that Spurs will only sanction his departure if there is a substantial offer on the table.
It will be interesting to see if any club is willing to break the bank for him. Tottenham will be hoping to secure UEFA Champions League qualification this season, and they will look to push for trophies as well. They must keep their squad intact and hold on to their best players to succeed.
Tottenham cannot afford to lose Vicario
The Italian goalkeeper is certainly one of the key players at the club right now, and he has established himself as an asset for them. Tottenham simply cannot afford to lose someone of his quality. Also, he has a long-term contract at the club, and Spurs are under no pressure to cash on him. Any club hoping to sign the player will have to pay well over the odds.
The Italian international is only 28, and he is yet to enter his peak years as a goalkeeper. He will be a long-term asset for Tottenham. It is not surprising that clubs are keen on signing a quality player like him, but a move seems highly unlikely in the near future.
