If the Italian press are to believed, English clubs are continually chasing after the Director of Sport at top Serie A clubs.
Often, maybe always, it feels like PR for the man in question, and a fluffing of Italian football’s feathers.
On Thursday, Calciomercato bring Tottenham and Daniel Levy into the equation, and present a chase for Fabio Paratici, Juventus’ man guiding transfers and general football matters.
Levy is said to have been a fan of Paratici for years, perhaps impressed by the free and value signings Juventus have a good knack of getting.
It would be no surprise if this is again an effort to show how good an Italian DoS is, but Paratici has clearly been doing a good job for Juventus. If Tottenham are interested in a man for the role it would be conceivable they’d consider the Juve man.
