Amidst fears that they might lose Cristian Romero this summer, Tottenham Hotspur may turn to a centre-back who has won the Scudetto twice in the last three years.
According to reports over recent days, Tottenham are expected to try their best to tie Romero to a new contract.
However, should they be unable to do so, Spurs are prepared to sell Romero to Atletico Madrid, with the Lilywhites expected to demand £60m for their vice-captain.
It was previously reported that Guehi has emerged as a frontrunner to replace Romero, but we have heard more recently that Guehi has turned down the chance to join Tottenham.
Tottenham eyeing move for the experienced Amir Rrahmani
Amidst reports linking the Argentine with a move to the Metropolitano Stadium, a new report in CalcioNapoli24 has now suggested that the Lilywhites may turn their attention to a Napoli man.
The outlet claims that Amir Rrahmani, who was an ever-present in Antonio Conte’s backline in the Serie A this season, is of interest to the North Londoners.
Rrahmani has two years left on his deal at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium, and a renewal has been put forward by the Italian champions.

However, the outlet asserts that Tottenham Hotspur’s strong interest could ‘rock the boat’ in Napoli’s efforts to tie the 31-year-old down to a new contract.

The outlet claims that a move to the Middle East might also be on the cards for the Kosovo international, who has ‘strong admirers’ from the Saudi Pro League.
Interestingly, it is suggested that Rrahmani’s agent may be using the interest from Spurs and Saudi Arabia to squeeze more money out of Napoli.
One thus cannot rule out the possibility that this speculation has been fed to the press by the centre-back’s representatives to improve their negotiating position with Conte’s side.
