‘Amazing’ Tottenham star has had ‘devastating impact’ since arriving – ‘Overtaken’ rival in hierarchy

Had it not been for a fever early on in the international break, Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario might have had a chance at getting his first cap.

The goalkeeper has impressed greatly since arriving from Empoli in the summer to take over from Hugo Lloris, whose time at Spurs is clearly over.

While he isn’t the starter for his country, the Tottenham star is making a good case for it, as explained by Quotidiano Sportivo on Thursday.

The outlet look at the goalkeeping situation for Italy, and while they don’t dispute that Gianluigi Donnarumma deserves to be between the sticks, Vicario could start giving him a run for his money at this rate.

They say the ‘amazing’ Tottenham player has had a ‘devastating impact’ in the Premier League since his arrival, and is proving to be the most ‘in-form’ in his position.

While Alex Meret used to be the number two for his country, the Napoli man has been ‘overtaken’ by the Spurs player, seeing as his start to the season has paled in comparison to his compatriot’s.

Since arriving at Tottenham, Vicario has conceded 15 goals in 12 games, and kept four clean sheets in the Premier League.
