Tottenham, Conte, Paratici, Transfer News, Bremer, Torino
According to a report by Italian newspaper Tuttosport, as relayed by Tribal Football, an interesting update has come to light involving Tottenham Hotspur target Gleison Bremer.
The Lowdown: Bremer eyed by Conte…
The Brazilian centre-back, who has been simply brilliant this season for Torino, is attracting interest from Spurs manager Antonio Conte as a result.
Tutto Juve recently claimed that the Lilywhites’ interest is so strong that transfer chief Fabio Paratici could try to tempt Bremer with a ‘good proposal’ this summer. However, they are not alone in admiring the 24-year-old, with Manchester United, Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan also keen on his services.
In an update, Tuttosport (via Tribal Football) have now shared an interesting development.
The Latest: Tuttosport make interesting Bremer claim…
It is now believed that Spurs manager Conte has personally sent club official and his Spurs assistant coach Cristian Stellini to run the rule over Bremer today.
Indeed, Tottenham’s head coach has tasked Stellini with overlooking the South American’s performance at Torino as they take on Inter later this evening.
Despite extending Bremer’s deal recently, the Serie A club will likely greenlight his summer sale for €30m (£25m).
The Verdict: Get it done…
For just £25m, Conte could seal a very astute central defensive option going by Bremer’s young age, performances this season and imposing 6 foot 2 frame.
The 24-year-old seemingly possesses a tailor-made physicality for the Premier League and is suited to teams who like to press the ball intensely, as explained in scout reports.
Ex-Forza Italian Football writer and Serie A blogger Rajath Kumar has one European football expert to have heaped praise on the defender for his outings over the last few seasons. Taking to Twitter, described Bremer as ‘one of Serie A’s most dominant defenders’ and Torino’s ’emerging superstar’ – leaving little wonder he has attracted Conte’s attention.
In a possible boost for Spurs, the Torino colossus also has the same agent as Tottenham favourite Son Heung-min.
As eyes fixate on the centre-back this evening, it will be interesting to see if his performance against Inter prompts even more interest from Tottenham.
