Lazio’s director of football Igli Tare is a target for Tottenham Hotspur, the Italian media says.
That’s today reported by outlet TuttoMercatoWeb, who features a story on the 49-year-old’s future.
It’s claimed that despite a ‘possible break’ between Lazio and Tare, the Serie A side are now working to keep him.
They’re said to be preparing a three-year contract extension for him, with club president Claudio Lotito trying to ‘accelerate’ that process.
A good reason for the club to convince the director of staying is the interest he’s been drawing from other sides. That’s where Tottenham get a mention.
It’s claimed that Tare is on Spurs’ ‘approval list’ for ‘next season’, as he could be a man to replace Fabio Paratici in the job.
TuttoMercatoWeb doesn’t bring many more details on this case, such as whether Paratici would be close to the exit door, or if contact from Tottenham for Tare has already been made.
It’s only claimed that besides Tottenham, Juventus also have an eye on the Lazio director, and should be watching how this renewal process goes on.
