Tottenham Hotspur’s scouts have been left impressed by Bologna defender Riccardo Calafiori, who are also on the radar of Napoli and Juventus.
Spurs did some shopping in Italy in the winter transfer window when they signed Romanian centre-back Radu Dragusin from Genoa.
Tottenham are likely to be in the market for another defender in the summer and the club are scouring the market for options.
It has been claimed that Tottenham scouts have zeroed in on the performances of another centre-back in Serie A.
According to Italian daily Corriere di Bologna (via Tutto Mercato), Calafiori is being closely watched by the Tottenham recruitment team through their scouts.
The Spurs scouts have been left impressed by the Bologna defender and have sent glowing reports to north London.
The 21-year-old has suitors in Italy as well where Napoli and Juventus are monitoring his performances.
Bologna are aware of the growing interest in the Italian and have slapped a €30m asking price on his head.
It remains to be seen whether Tottenham’s interest in Calafiori develops into a concrete offer in the summer.
