FABRIZIO ROMANO CLAIMS SPURS ARE ABOUT TO SIGN PLAYER PARATICI WANTED

Tottenham Hotspur is set to sign Guglielmo Vicario – a player Fabio Paratici fancied bringing to North London.

Fabio Paratici may have left Tottenham Hotspur but his influence is still being felt with a move for Guglielmo Vicario.

That is according to Football London, who claim that Paratici was a keen admirer of Empoli goalkeeper Vicario.

Paratici left his post as Tottenham’s director of football in April having been hit with a worldwide ban by FIFA.

Paratici did though set the wheels in motion for a deal to sign Vicario having made inquiries into signing him earlier this year.

Chief scout Leonardo Gabbanini admired Vicario too and Tottenham now appears to be on the verge of a deal for the Empoli stopper.

Tottenham set to snap up Guglielmo Vicario

Rumors over a deal to sign Vicario have ramped up over the last 24 hours or so.

Fabrizio Romano has taken to Twitter this evening to report that Tottenham has completed an agreement to sign Vicario.

Spurs will be paying € 19 million (£ 16.3 million) to bring Vicario to the Premier League.

The idea is for Vicario to come in and become the long-term successor to Hugo Lloris, who could leave Spurs this summer.
