Igor Tudor is set to make a huge selection call for Tottenham Hotspur’s clash against Crystal Palace this evening.
With West Ham beating Fulham 1-0 on Wednesday, Spurs sit just a point off the relegation zone.
They are desperate for points against a struggling Crystal Palace side after losing two back-to-back London derbies against Arsenal and Fulham.
Ahead of the big showdown at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the interim Spurs head coach is set to make a controversial selection decision.
Igor Tudor is set to drop Guglielmo Vicario
The Sun claim the Croatian coach is set to drop Guglielmo Vicario from his starting eleven for this evening’s clash.
The Italian has started every single Premier League game for Spurs this season, but his form has attracted plenty of criticism.
Just two games into his tenure, it has now emerged that Tudor has seen enough to leave the 29-year-old out of his preferred eleven.
The report says that Antonin Kinsky is set to make his first league start of the season as Spurs go looking for their first league win of the calendar year.
Is this the final nail in the coffin for Vicario’s Spurs career?
Guglielmo Vicario continues to be heavily linked with a return to Serie A, with Juventus and Inter Milan both thought to be interested in the 29-year-old.
Reports indicate that Spurs are ready to sell their number one for £26m this summer.
If the former Empoli man is dropped at this stage of the season, it is going to be hard for him to force himself back into the team, and it may seal his departure at the end of the season.
