On Monday, Tuttosport reported Tottenham Hotspur’s contacts with Weston McKennie’s entourage are increasing.
The player, who is currently with the US at the World Cup, has an uncertain future.
Tottenham’s interest in the 24-year-old is discussed by La Repubblica, when detailing Juventus’ plans to shape up their midfield.
Juve have a decision to make on Adrien Rabiot’s contract situation and the offers they have received for the former Schalke man.
McKennie regained full fitness for the FIFA tournament after being out with injury. He is not in top condition and not performing as well as he can for his country.
This has not put off clubs interested in signing him as he has no shortage of offers. The Old Lady are willing to listen to sirens coming from the Premier League, and when mentioning his suitors, only Tottenham are tagged.
It’s claimed Antonio Conte and Spurs chief Fabio Paratici are ‘interested’ in the American, but they are ‘not intending to go crazy’ to secure his services.
McKennie’s future is linked to that of Rabiot. If the American is sold, the funds raise from his exit would be used to sign Lazio star Sergej Milinković-Savić.
