How to pronounce Guglielmo Vicario’s name – Tottenham’s likely new goalkeeper

How do you pronounce Guglielmo Vicario? It seems Tottenham Hotspur have finally secured a new goalkeeper for their squad for next season, but before we get too excited about the arrival of Vicario, it’s worth finding out how to actually say his name.

Things moved pretty quickly in the transfer of Guglielmo Vicario, with the Italian goalkeeper emerging as a concrete target for Tottenham on 21 June and, as per Gianluca Di Marzio, the North London club had an agreement in principle in place with Empoli by that evening.

We have since had the ‘Here we go’ treatment from Fabrizio Romano, and in the transfer expert’s latest update, it appears Vicario is due in London on 25 June to complete his medical and sign the contract with Spurs.

These are exciting times indeed for Lilywhites fans, and we’ve already compiled a lowdown on the player in our Guglielmo Vicario bio, but now it’s time to get to grips with saying his name properly.

How do you pronounce Guglielmo Vicario?

Thanks to a video shared by Fabrizio Romano, whose Italian we think we can trust, we know that Guglielmo Vicario’s name is pronounced Goo-yel-mo Vi-ka-ri-o.

The 26-year-old’s surname is pretty straightforward as it is basically as you would expect based on the spelling.

His first name is a little more difficult, but you have to essentially make the second ‘g’ in Guglielmo a silent ‘g’ and the pronunciation becomes a lot easier.

You can watch the TikTok from Fabrizio Romano below which will show you how an Italian says the name.

One thing is for sure, we can’t wait to hear commentators and pundits giving this one a go during the matches next season. Thankfully, you’ll be an expert on pronouncing Guglielmo Vicario by then, thanks to this article.
