On Thursday, Gianluca Di Marzio reported Tottenham Hotspur have sent a ‘written bid’ to Empoli after the two clubs reached a verbal agreement for Guglielmo Vicario’s transfer.
Later that day, journalist Rudy Galetti stated the goalkeeper’s move to the north London club could be made official by the end of this week.
The latest report from Gianluca Di Marzio states the 26-year-old is ‘getting closer and closer’ to Tottenham after they reached an agreement with the Serie A side for his transfer.
This information is provided by TuttoMercatoWeb, who say Vicario ‘will fly to London in the next few hours’ to carry out medical tests, before completing a move to the Premier League side.
It’s said the player is ‘one step away’ from joining Ange Postecoglou’s side after Empoli approved their offer of €20m plus bonuses and ‘only the last details’ are missing for the deal to take shape.
Vicario is expected to replace Hugo Lloris, who has already expressed his desire to leave, as the first-choice goalkeeper at Tottenham next season.
