According to a report in La Repubblica (as relayed by Pianeta Genoa 1893), Tottenham Hotspur remain intent on landing Albert Gudmundsson and are one of two Premier League sides who are now pushing to sign the Genoa star.
Over the last few months, there has been plenty of speculation linking Gudmundsson with a move to Spurs and the rumours do not seem to be slowing down.
The latest to report on the forward’s future is La Repubblica, who say that the player is on the wishlist of Spurs and West Ham.
As well as the two London clubs, Napoli, Inter Milan, AS Roma and Lazio are said to be in the mix to land the 27-year-old but the report says that the two Premier League sides are now ‘pushing hard’ for him.
The report reveals that Lazio had offered €20m plus Matteo Cancellieri in exchange for Gudmundsson but this offer was turned down by Genoa.
The Serie A side are said to be holding out for €40m in cash, rather than a player swap deal this summer.
Meanwhile, another report in Sportitalia also states that Lazio are not expected to be successful in their pursuit of the Iceland international, especially given approaches from the Premier League for the forward.
Spurs Web Opinion
I am not convinced that Tottenham have shown anything more than an exploratory interest in Gudmundsson.
If the Lilywhites were serious about landing the attacker, they would have likely brought it up while sitting down with Genoa to negotiate for Djed Spence.
