Torino’s Soualiho Meite has been on Tottenham Hotspur’s radar since the start of this calendar year.
In January, we covered claims from Gazzetta dello Sport that Spurs were ‘ready to put in a bid’ and even knocked on the Serie A side’s door for the midfielder, but they didn’t even bother opening it.
Earlier in March, the same newspaper reported that Mauricio Pochettino’s side have been ‘knocking at the door’ of Torino for the 25-year-old ‘for months’.
Calciomercato now claims the Frenchman is still in the sights of the north London club, but the desire of Walter Mazzarri and his side is to keep hold of the player beyond this season.
If they fail to qualify for next season’s European competition, Torino may have to give a go-ahead for negotiations as Meite does not lack offers.
Tottenham have not made a new signing in the last two transfer windows, so there’s got to be action this time.
