Tottenham Hotspur appear to be in the driving seat to land a highly rated attacker on the continent.

The North Londoners have made four additions so far this summer and Ange Postecoglou is now keen to bring in another attacker.

The Australian head coach will be eager to return the club to the illustrious Champions League in the fast approaching Premier Leaugue season, so the board will have to back him further.

With that said, it appears they’re set to hold talks with the agent of a world class player.

Federico Chiesa’s agent in London

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the agent of Juventus attacker Federico Chiesa has flown to London to hold talks with Tottenham Hotspur.

The 26-year-old is out of contract next summer and is thought to be available for around £25m, which has put a number of suitors on red alert.

London rivals Chelsea are also in the race to land his signature and have made initial contact, so Spurs will have to be wary of a potential hijacking.

Manchester United and Bayern Munich have also made enquiries and Chiesa has indicated that the former would be his preferred destination.

Federico Chiesa statistics

Chiesa, who has been labelled ‘world class’ per Sports View, is an extremely versatile player – which is a trait Posetcoglou is keen on adding to his squad.

The Italy international can operate off both flanks and through the middle as a second striker, so he’d provide Spurs with great depth across a number of areas.

The Juve man netted 10 times whilst laying on three assists last term which is a commendable return considering he started 25 league games.
