Spurs reported to be keen on signing highly-rated defender

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic, according to the Mirror.

The 20-year-old is currently on international duty with Serbia and played the full 90 minutes in their 2-0 UEFA Nations League victory against Montenegro last night

Milenkovic has already scored twice for Fiorentina in eight Serie A appearances this season whilst helping his side to clean three clean sheets.

He is said to be also attracting interest from Premier League rivals Manchester United, who already have fellow Seb Nemanja Matic on their books and former United player Nemanja Vidic is regarded as a club legend.

Fiorentina would be set to make a huge profit on the central defender if they did decide to part company, after only paying £4m to land his services from Partizan at the end of last season.
