Tottenham Hotspur have plenty of transfer targets this summer, but the club has been told by Darren Ambrose that, if they want to compete at the very top, they need to recruit in a position you might not expect.
Spurs fans may think the club has got everything sorted in the goalkeeper department, but Ambrose believes the Lilywhites need to push on and sign another top keeper to push Guglielmo Vicario, just like Arsenal did with Aaron Ramsdale and David Raya.
And Ambrose believes Valencia keeper, Giorgi Mamardashvilli is the man for the job. When asked by talkSPORT who should sign the Georgian, Ambrose said: “I am going to say it – Spurs. They have Vicario, but there were a few flaws in Vicario, and I think people targeted that in terms of coming for crosses.
“He wasn’t getting a lot of support from the officials, but people were targeting his weakness of coming for crosses. So, look, maybe, and we have seen with Arsenal with the two goalkeepers situation, sometimes that works.”
Before Tottenham signed Vicario last summer, Mamardashvilli was heavily linked with the Lilywhites.
According to a report from Fichajes, Spurs were looking to take advantage of Valencia’s financial issues by trying to make an approach for their keeper.
More recently, Estadio Deportivo claimed Tottenham are still monitoring Mamardashvilli’s situation, despite the fact the Georgian stopper has a €100m release clause, but is destined to leave Valencia this summer.

Mamardashvilli is one of the best keepers in the world, to be honest, and it would be very interesting to see him competing with Vicario at Spurs.
We don’t need to sign a new goalkeeper this year in my opinion, but if and when we do, Mamardashvilli should be a target for sure.
