Tottenham Hotspur are looking to improve their defensive unit by signing Fikayo Tomori from AC Milan in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, AC Milan have decided to reduce the asking price for Fikayo Tomori, and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can get the deal across the line. They will have to pay £26 million to get the deal done.
Cristian Romero has been linked with a move away from the club, with Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid keen on securing his signature. Tottenham will need to replace the Argentine international, and Tomori would be a quality addition.
The English international has done quite well in Italy, and he has the qualities to do well in the Premier League well. The 27-year-old will feel that he has unfinished business in England, and it remains to be seen whether he is open to a move to Tottenham.
The former Chelsea defender will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing in the Premier League. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs can work out a deal regarding Fikayo Tomori that benefits them both.
The 27-year-old is at the peak of his powers, and he could hit the ground running in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham end up signing him. They have been linked with multiple defensive talents in recent weeks, including Isak Hien.
Spurs need more defensive quality
It has been a disappointing season for Tottenham, and they will look to bounce back strongly next year. Spurs should be fighting for domestic trophies regularly and competing in the UEFA Champions League. They need quality players for that to happen, and signing a reliable defender like Fikayo Tomori should be one of their priorities.
The Lilywhites have looked quite vulnerable defensively they season, and Romero’s departure will only weaken them further. It remains to be seen whether Tomori can fill that void if he joins the club.
Spurs might also need to invest in a quality central defensive midfielder who will protect the back four. Tomori will want to join the club capable enough to fight for trophies, and Tottenham certainly have an ambitious project. They could be an attractive destination for him this summer.
