Juventus are now interested in signing another senior Tottenham Hotspur star, as well as goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Vicario has been heavily linked with a move to Juventus since the start of the summer, but the Serie A club are facing some complications in securing the Italy international.
It has emerged that Tottenham’s asking price of €15m to €20m (£12.7m-£17m) for Vicario is considered ‘too high’ by the Bianconeri, given their financial predicament.
The Old Lady would first have to sell their current goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio to fund a move for the Spurs star, but their interest has now allegedly been piqued by another experienced Tottenham man.
Roberto De Zerbi has offered Tottenham striker Richarlison to Juventus
According to a report in Gazzetta dello Sport, the Tottenham head coach has a very good relationship with Juventus CEO Giovanni Carnevali.
De Zerbi and Carnevali worked together during their time at Sassuolo and have been speaking regularly in recent weeks.
While their conversations began with Carnevali asking about the situation of Vicario, the Tottenham boss also mentioned Richarlison, who is also on the shop window.
The outlet claims that the Brazilian striker, who was Spurs’ top scorer with 12 goals across all competitions last season, has now been added to Juve’s shortlist.
Juve see Richarlison as an alternative to his former Spurs teammate
Gazzetta say that the former Everton striker is not keen on renewing his contract at Tottenham, and with his deal running out next season, the Lilywhites are keen to sell.
The North London club are said to be looking for a fee of around €20m to €25m (£17m-£21.2m) for Richarlison this summer.
That makes him a cheaper option for Juve than former Spurs loanee Randal Kolo Muani, who the Italian side are struggling to strike an agreement for as they continue talks with PSG.
