So, rumours have been circulating today, and earlier this week in fact, that Tottenham are close to securing the signature of Mirko Vucinic from AS Roma.
This summer isn’t the first time we’ve been linked with a move for Montenegrin international having been, supposedly, launching bids for the 27-year-old the past 18 months.
However, despite Vucinic opting to stay in the Italian capital in previous transfer windows, this summer may finally be the time he moves on.
Having fallen out with the board and the fans, coupled with the recent arrival of Bojan, the striker is looking for a way out of the club.
Roma sporting director Walter Sabatini admits he doesn’t want to sell the player but his options seems limited now that Bojan has arrived.
A £15m fee has reportedly been agreed and chairman Daniel Levy is hoping a deal can be secured by the time the first-team squad arrive back from South Africa.
A friend of mine said to watch for further developments on Monday but we all know ITK’s are a load of old tripe so until it is announced on the Spurs website, I wouldn’t go about getting my hopes.
Still, watch this space….
