The fan backlash has deeply concerned Guglielmo Vicario is considering a departure, appears to stem from recent reports in Italian media, particularly La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Vicario, 29, has faced criticism from Spurs supporters this season, most notably after a high-profile error in Tottenham’s 2-1 home loss to Fulham on November 29, 2025. He misjudged a clearance outside his box, gifting possession to Fulham’s Joshua King, who assisted Harry Wilson’s open-goal winner in the 6th minute.
Fans booed him immediately after the mistake and continued during touches in subsequent games, including against Newcastle. Brentford manager Thomas Frank (noted for his Tottenham links) publicly called out the behaviour, saying it wasn’t “true Tottenham fans” supporting their players.
This has reportedly left Vicario “tired of experiencing yet another psycho-dramatic season” at the club, with tensions between the squad and fans described as a “critical issue” after a recent team meeting.
Italian giants Inter Milan are leading the chase, viewing Vicario as a long-term replacement for Yann Sommer (whose contract expires in summer 2026). Inter previously tried to sign him from Empoli in 2023 before Tottenham’s €20m (£17.2m) intervention.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport they’ve already contacted his representatives, and Vicario is said to be “open” to a Serie A return, potentially as early as January 2026.
Self-indulgent, much?
He’s informed his agents that this could be his “last agonising season” in the Premier League, fuelled by the fan toxicity and a growing desire to return home. His current salary is around €2.8m per year, and Tottenham might listen to bids starting at €30m to recoup their investment.
Quite frankly, the player would be better placed working on not making daft mistakes. There’s also a distinct lack of self-awareness, as demonstrated by all the unnecessary pointing and shouting that routinely follow his recurring errors.
