Tottenham have agreed a €19m (£16.4m) deal to buy the Empoli goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario. The 26-year-old is due in London to sign a contract to 2028. Spurs have been searching for a goalkeeper after Hugo Lloris declared his intention to leave. They also agreed terms with David Raya but are not willing to meet Brentford’s £40m asking price. Vicario has just finished his second season as the first choice with Empoli in Serie A, having played in Italy’s lower divisions and been the second choice at top-flight Cagliari in 2020-21. He has been a regular in the Italy squad since his first call-up last September but has not played for the national team. Tottenham have made the Bayer Leverkusen and Burkina Faso centre-back Edmond Tapsoba their top target in that position. The 24-year-old has been with Leverkusen since 2020 after joining from the Portuguese club Vitória Guimarães. Fulham’s Tosin Adarabioyo is among other options being considered by Spurs, who are have given Davinson Sánchez the go-ahead to look for a new club. Bournemouth are close to signing Justin Kluivert from Roma for £9.5m plus £850,000 in add-ons. The forward has agree a contract to 2028.
