Gudmundsson becomes hot property as Tottenham face stiff competition for Icelandic ace

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Genoa forward Albert Gudmundsson for some time now, and per recent reports by TEAMtalk, Spurs Premier League rivals have joined the race to sign the 26-year-old ace.

The North Londoners have been dipping into the shining talents in the Italian market for some time now, and in Albert Gudmundsson, they are looking to bring another talent that has been shining in the Italian top-tier this season.

Daniel Levy is looking to bring players through the doors at the N17 who can help expand the ceiling of the roster available at the Australian gaffer’s disposal. When intending to expand the potential of the squad, who better to do so than a player that has been likened to Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah? 

Can Levy clinch it? Spurs face financial foes in race for Gudmundsson

The Lilywhites faced competition from the likes of Inter Milan, Juventus, and Napoli for the signatures of the Iceland International; however, in Manchester United, they now have another financial powerhouse rival to Gudmundsson’s signatures. Alongside United, Tottenham’s top-four rivals, Aston Villa, are also said to be vying for the possibility of signing the 26-year-old. 

Genoa are looking to recoup at least €30 million for their star man this summer, who has scored sixteen goals this season while providing a further four assists in 34 appearances in all competitions this season. He has been the player who has made noise in the Italian top division owing to his versatility and exemplary performance, something Tottenham can use following the rumours of Richarlison leaving at the end of the ongoing season.
