Fabrizio Romano has claimed Juventus winger Dejan Kulusevski is keen on making a move to Tottenham this month.
Tottenham are working towards making their first acquisition this month after a difficult week, having seen their attempts to sign Porto winger Luis Diaz hijacked by Liverpool (The Guardian).
The Athletic report Tottenham are in talks to sign the Sweden international Kulusevski on an initial loan, with either an option or obligation to buy at the conclusion of the deal.
Current Spurs managing director Fabio Paratici initially signed the 21-year-old for Juventus from Atalanta in January 2020 during his stint as the club’s transfer chief.
Romano has since revealed that Kulusevski is eager on making the switch to North London this month as both Spurs and Juventus continue to look for a resolution to get a deal over the line.

Everything looks to be in place and progressing well regarding a move for Kulusevski, so hopefully, Spurs will get this one done after the pretty poor week they’ve had.
He didn’t seem to be a target this month, but the fact he has accepted making the move should be a positive in negotiations.
