TUTTOmercatoWEB say that the two Lilywhites figures see Kulusevski as a 'gem' with real potential as he enters Tottenham's transfer target list.

Meanwhile, other reports suggest that Paratici could take him to Tottenham as Conte personally green lights a move for the 21-year-old (La Gazzetta dello Sport).

Now, sharing what he knows, Di Marzio has made a claim live on Sky.

The Latest: Di Marzio makes Kulusevski claim...

Speaking to the broadcast giant (via Football Daily), the Italian reporter says that Spurs do indeed hold an interest in Kulusevski - citing both Paratici and Conte's personal fondness for the player.

"I know that Antonio and Fabio Paratici they like Kulusevski," he explained.

"He's a Juventus player that Fabio got at Juventus, bought him from Atalanta, it's not easy, but he is one of the names."

The Verdict: Get it done?

Lauded as an 'athletic phenomenon' by football talent scout Jacek Kulig, we would advise Spurs to move for Kulusevski given he could plug many holes in Conte's squad.

He is able to operate as an advanced playmaker as well as on the wings and further forward, with his best season for ex-club Parma indicating he could do a job in north London.

According to WhoScored, he averaged a very impressive 2.2 key passes per 90 over the 2019/2020 season for Parma - more than any Spurs player has managed in the Premier League this season.

Still young, Kulusevski also has plenty of room for improvement and it is believed Juve are open to selling for around €35 million-€40 million (£29.3m-£33.5m).

Indeed, he could actually come as a brilliant option for Spurs.
