On April 21st, TuttoMercatoWeb reported that Tottenham Hotspur chief Fabio Paratici is ‘ready to accelerate’ for Hellas Verona star Antonín Barák.
It was also explained there is a ‘strong pressure’ from Antonio Conte on the north London club to sign the midfielder in the summer.
Tottenham Hotspur wanting the former Udinese man after this season has also been discussed by Mondo Udinese.
The 27-year-old has ‘completely exploded’ under the orders of Igor Tudor, who replaced Eusebio Di Francesco at the Serie A side in September 2021.
Operating as an attacking midfielder, he has 11 goals and four assists to his name from 29 league matches this season.
There is one club that has been ‘bewitched’ by the Czech Republic international’s displays for Hellas Verona and that is Tottenham Hotspur. It’s further claimed the ex-Chelsea boss would make an attempt to convince the player join the Premier League side.
Conte could be key for any potential transfer and if Barák were to end up at Spurs, it would be a ‘sensational deal’ for everyone involved.
Barák has over two years left on his contract and the report states the upcoming window is an ‘excellent opportunity’ for Hellas Verona president Maurizio Setti to cash in from the player’s sale.
