Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly made contact with the agent of Dusan Vlahovic, according to Corriere Fiorentino.

However, Spurs are far from the only team to be linked with the Fiorentina ace – Arsenal are also thought to have “tested the waters”.

AC Milan, Roma, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and Atletico Madrid have also reportedly expressed their interest.

Vlahovic has enjoyed a great season for the Serie A side, registering 13 goals and two assists from 28 league games.

The 21-year-old joined Fiorentina from Partizan Belgrade in 2018, two years after The Sun linked him with the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City.

It was also mentioned in their article that Juventus scouts branded the striker as the next Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Meanwhile, Corriere Fiorentino claims Vlahovic is the most wanted striker in Europe after Erling Haaland.

The outlet also says the Serbia international has rejected all new contract offers so far from his club.

Vlahovic, whose contract runs until 2023, is believed to be valued at 50million Euro, or around £43million.

Vlahovic is a young player of the highest calibre whose goalscoring record at the top level is impressive, so it’s little surprise to see him linked with some of Europe’s biggest clubs.

Given Carlos Vinicius is not exactly making waves on loan at Spurs, you’d think Mourinho would be keeping his eyes open for someone else to deputise for, and learn from, Harry Kane.
