Spurs 'among clubs interested in £30m Nicolo Zaniolo'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly among a host of clubs interested in signing Galatasaray's Nicolo Zaniolo this summer, with Aston Villa and Juventus also keen.

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly entered the race to sign Galatasaray attacker Nicolo Zaniolo this summer, with a host of teams in the Premier League and across Europe also interested.

The 23-year-old moved from Roma to the Turkish giants in February of this year and has impressed as Okan Buruk's side won the Turkish Super Lig, scoring five goals in 10 league appearances.

A move to Istanbul has been the Italian's first foray outside of his homeland after spells with Inter Milan and Virtus Entella before making the switch to Roma in the summer of 2018.

According to Tutto Juve, Spurs are among a group of clubs interested in signing Zaniolo this summer, despite the player moving to Turkey only a few months ago.

The report claims that the attacker has offers in the Premier League from Spurs and Unai Emery's Aston Villa, with Serie A outfits AC Milan and Juventus also said to be keen.

It is understood that Galatasaray would prefer for Zaniolo to leave on loan next season instead of on a permanent deal - a temporary arrangement is one Juve are believed to be favouring.

With a release clause of just under £30m, the Italy international could be a budget option as Ange Postecoglou looks to mould his Spurs side into one which can compete for Champions League football next term.
