Tottenham Hotspur has identified the replacement of Huglo Lloris

According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur is interested in acquiring Empoli goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario

Spurs are reportedly interested in Guglielmo Vicario, a 26-year-old goalkeeper for Empoli who has been performing well in Serie A this season, according to a report from the Italian magazine La Gazzetta Dello sport.

The north London club is looking to replace Hugo Lloris as their starting goalkeeper at the conclusion of the season and has been connected with many candidates in recent months. Jamie Carragher has lately argued that Tottenham should get rid of the ageing goalie.

The Frenchman, at 35 years old, has been a fantastic teammate for Spurs ever since he arrived from Lyon, but he has recently begun to decline. Tottenham needs to replace Lloris with a younger, more talented goalkeeper soon.

The French goalie’s mistakes have cost the squad dearly this season. It remains to be seen whether Spurs can close a deal for Vicario in the coming months. The Empoli goalie, 26 years old, is highly regarded in Italy. He would undoubtedly flourish if allowed to play for a powerhouse like Tottenham.

The Italian goalkeeper is entering his prime and could be a great acquisition for Tottenham. North London’s team is aiming high for the next seasons, targeting major honours like the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League. As such, it is imperative that they work to improve upon their current limitations.

When planning for the next offseason, Antonio Conte should prioritize replacing Lloris. Those in north London should put equal resources into strengthening their defences. Players like Pau Torres have caught their eye recently.

Since the Italian manager’s arrival, Daniel Levy has been nothing but helpful. It remains to be seen if Tottenham’s chairman will support him with transfer cash in the next January window and the upcoming summer window.

Vicario will undoubtedly be enthused by the prospect of moving to Tottenham and joining the Premier League team. It’s a huge opportunity for the Italian goalkeeper’s career, and it may even help him play better.

It’s clear that the 26-year-old can compete at a higher level. It would be fascinating to see whether Tottenham and Empoli can come to terms on a salary for him. However, besides Jordan Pickford, Spurs are interested in other goalkeepers as well.
