Tottenham Hotspur make approach for Fiorentina midfielder Matias Vecino?

Fiorentina midfielder Matias Vecino has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Tottenham Hotspur.

Last season, Spurs recorded their best-ever effort in the Premier League, with the North London outfit registering 86 points from their 38 fixtures.

However, head coach Mauricio Pochettino is keen to make experienced additions during the transfer window and it appears that he has identified a player to compete in the middle of the park.

According to Tutto Mercato, Spurs have made contact with Fiorentina over Vecino ahead of a possible bid later in the summer.

The 25-year-old has been contracted to Viola since 2013 and after loan spells with both Cagliari and Empoli, he has now established himself as a first-team regular.

During the most recent campaign, Vecino - who has won 13 caps for Uruguay - made 40 appearances in all competitions.
