Why Juventus see Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario as the ideal option for keeper role

Why Juventus see Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario as the ideal option for keeper role Serie A side Juventus have been in the hunt for a new goalkeeper for many weeks. Several names were thrown into the mix but they have now settled for Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario, who arrives on an initial loan deal. The Italian joined the Old Lady after being excluded from Roberto De Zerbi’s project at Tottenham and was essentially third choice in London. La Gazzetta dello Sport note the key reasons behind the deal and why Vicario is seen as the ideal option. The player’s push has proved decisive. Juve CEO Giovanni Carnevali had promised Luciano Spalletti a new keeper by today. Vicario had been keen on the move for a while and Tottenham’s openness to a loan deal has certainly helped the matter. Spalletti had doubts The Juve boss wasn’t always convinced about Vicario though. He even publicly expressed that, attempting to understand why Tottenham had excluded from their squad. Despite that, the 29-year-old always remained a viable option for Juve. Aston Villa’s rigidity in a move for Emi Martinez also played a role. They didn’t change their demands, leaving Vicario as the option, especially as Zion Suzuki never joined PSG and a loan to Juve never worked out as a result. Vicario’s experience valued The keeper’s experience with the national team and with Tottenham has also played a part in the move. That is also why a move for Martinez was being pursued but Vicario is also 29 and has won silverware with Spurs, having become the second-choice with the Azzurri. As a result, his personality is valued in Turin, especially with Michele Di Gregorio struggling last season. Kaustubh Pandey – GIFN
