For the past week or two, Riccardo Calafiori has been the talk of the transfer window.
The Italian defender has been extensively linked to both Chelsea and Arsenal, and some people believe a move to Arsenal is highly likely.
It is said that an offer has been submitted and that personal terms have been agreed upon. But this story has more twists than one.
Spurs are interested in signing Riccardo Calafiori.
Gazzetta reports that Tottenham will make another attempt to recruit Ricardo Calafiori.
Tottenham wants to bring up the Italian defender again as he prepares to join the Premier League. The player was rumoured to be on the team’s radar back in January.
Naturally, Tottenham won’t have an easy time closing this deal given that Arsenal appears to be really interested.
Calafiori’s transfer to Arsenal is most plausible
Although Tottenham will undoubtedly attempt to sabotage this trade, it seems that Arsenal is still the front-runner to close this transaction.
In terms of closing this deal, Arsenal is halfway there as they have already submitted a bid and reached a personal agreement.
In addition, Arsenal offers Champions League football, whereas Spurs does not, and both teams will face comparable competition for spots.
Indeed, Micky van de Ven plays a similar position at Spurs and one could argue that he’s Tottenham’s most undroppable player, while Gabriel Magalhaes acts as a barrier in Calafiori’s path to the Arsenal starting XI.
In addition to the two north London teams, Chelsea is rumoured to be interested in the £50 million player. The Blues, as usual, may have another transfer secret up their sleeve.
The player to watch as the transfer window heats up is Calafiori, without a doubt..
