There has been a big update on Tottenham’s plans for their goalkeeping role next season as Guglielmo Vicario edges closer to an exit from the North London club and Antonin Kinsky impresses between the sticks.
It is no secret that Inter Milan have been making advances to sign Vicario from Spurs ahead of the summer window.
Some sources have suggested that the Nerazzuri remain hopeful of sealing a £16m deal for Vicario, three years on from his move from Empoli to North London.
Meanwhile, Tottenham have already started working on potential replacements for Vicario, and it has now emerged that they could make an interesting choice.
Antonin Kinsky could become Tottenham’s number one under one condition
TEAMtalk have now confirmed that Vicario looks bound for Inter and revealed that Spurs decided to let the goalkeeper go this summer as far back as January.
However, interestingly, it is revealed that Tottenham are not certain to sign a new number one to replace the Italy international.
Instead, it is suggested that Roberto De Zerbi’s men are willing to make Antonin Kinsky their number one next season if they fail to stay in the Premier League.
However, it is suggested that should they avoid relegation, the Lilywhites are expected to sign a more high-profile replacement for Vicario.
Could Vicario have already played his final game for Spurs?
Vicario has missed Tottenham’s last three games after undergoing a hernia operation towards the end of March.
The Spurs number one is now fit and available for selection, but there is no guarantee that he will get into De Zerbi’s starting eleven for the clash against Aston Villa.
Kinsky has been praised by De Zerbi for his recent performances, and the Italian could decide to keep faith in the young Czech goalkeeper.
