Tottenham Hotspur 'see £45m Nicolo Zaniolo bid rejected by Roma'

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly failed with a €50m (£45m) offer for Roma attacker Nicolo Zaniolo.

The 21-year-old enjoyed an impressive 2019-20 campaign for his Serie A club, contributing eight goals and three assists in 33 appearances in all competitions.

Zaniolo has a contract in Rome until June 2024, but the speculation surrounding his future has gathered pace over the last few weeks, and a recent report claimed that Spurs were 'tracking' the Italy international.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Jose Mourinho's side recently approached Roma with an offer of €50m (£45m) for the versatile attacker.

However, Roma are said to have swiftly rejected the bid as they are determined to keep hold of the Italian during this summer's transfer window.

Zaniolo has scored 14 times and registered six times in 69 appearances for I Giallorossi in all competitions.
