A number of Spurs fans have welcomed speculation claiming Antonio Conte and Fabio Paratici want to bring Weston McKennie to Tottenham.

Spurs were linked with the Juventus midfielder in the summer shortly after Paratici arrived at N17.

Now, there are two former Juve stalwarts at Tottenham after Conte replaced Nuno Espirito Santo as manager.

And according to Calciomercato, the Italian duo is keen on McKennie, who could potentially be available for as little as £17.2million.

The 23-year-old is a talented player who looked a cut above in the Bundesliga and is finding his feet playing for one of the biggest clubs in Serie A.

Former Schalke boss David Wagner said in 2019 that he thought McKennie could become one of the best midfielders in the Bundesliga.

McKennie made his senior breakthrough at the Gelsenkirchen club and made 91 competitive appearances.

In 2020, he joined Juventus on a loan deal with an option to buy for an initial £18.5million, which the Italians took up in March this year.

McKennie has made 58 appearances for Juve and has also won 27 caps for the United States.

Admittedly, he struggled at the start of the season, but he’s now doing well and is very much in Massimiliano Allegri’s plans.

Here is what some Spurs fans have made of the speculation:
