Friday's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup: Lucas Vazquez, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Willian

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Tottenham on Friday, July 24.

The buildup to the summer transfer window has now begun, with rumours and speculation continuing to swirl as Tottenham Hotspur eye possible reinforcements.

Spurs were among the biggest spenders during the January transfer window but are expected to be active again in the summer as Jose Mourinho continues to mould his squad.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Friday morning's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup:


Tottenham Hotspur 'tracking Roma's Nicolo Zaniolo'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly 'tracking' Roma midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo with the view to a potential move for the Italy international at some stage in the future.

The 21-year-old has been in impressive form for his Serie A club during the 2019-20 campaign, contributing eight goals and two assists in 29 appearances in all competitions.

Zaniolo has a contract in Rome until June 2024, but the speculation surrounding his future has gathered pace ahead of the opening of this summer's transfer window.

According to The Guardian, Spurs are interested in the midfielder, with the London club's hierarchy viewing him as a 'considerable prospect' capable of thriving in the Premier League.

However, the report claims that Jose Mourinho's side are unlikely to attempt to sign the Italian during the upcoming market as they have other priorities.

Tottenham are allegedly weighing up an approach for Real Madrid's Lucas Vazquez, while Southampton's Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg also continues to be linked with a summer move.



Arsenal 'optimistic of signing Chelsea forward Willian'

Arsenal are reportedly optimistic about their chances of signing Chelsea forward Willian at the end of the season.

The Brazil international is set to leave Stamford Bridge following a breakdown in talks over a new deal.

Willian is out of contract this summer and is holding out for a three-year extension, which Chelsea are unwilling to offer him.

However, the 31-year-old revealed earlier this week that remaining with the Blues, where he has spent the past seven years, is his preferred option.

Despite Willian's comments, ESPN Brasil reporter Bruno Vicari claims that Arsenal are still confident they will have the former Shakhtar Donetsk player in their squad come the end of the summer.

Tottenham Hotspur are also believed to be monitoring Willian's situation, with the Brazilian making clear his desire to stay in London.
