Tottenham target Albert Gudmundsson has perhaps sent a hint that he will be leaving Genoa at the end of the season by stating that he is thankful for how the club’s fans have supported him over the years.
Various Italian outlets have suggested over recent days that Tottenham are one of the leading contenders to secure Gudmundsson’s services this summer.
This includes a recent update by Primo Canale, who claimed that Spurs are ‘moving to most’ to sign the attacking midfielder ahead of other Serie A suitors.

The publication points out that the Iceland international’s quotes sound like a goodbye and adds that Genoa are willing to trigger a ‘real auction’ for the player in the summer, with the Serie A club said to be hoping to raise €40m (£34.3m) from his sale.
