Tottenham Hotspur reportedly want to bring Patrick Cutrone to the Premier League as he struggles for Serie A starts at AC Milan.
The agent of AC Milan striker Patrick Cutrone has confirmed that the striker is likely to stay at the San Siro this summer, seemingly putting an end to speculation linking him with a big-money move to Tottenham Hotspur, speaking to Radio Marte.
Cutrone forced his way into Milan’s first team at the start of 2017/18 and he finished his breakthrough campaign with 18 goals in all competitions.
The 21-year-old’s second season has been a little more difficult, however. He has started just one Serie A game since Krzystof Piatek moved to Milan from Genoa in January and Tuttomercatoweb claimed that the Italian was growing frustrated with life on the Rossoneri bench.
Tottenham were apparently ready to offer Cutrone a fresh start with a bid of £30 million apparently enough to convince Milan into selling one of their prized assets.
But Cutrone’s agent, Donato Orgnoni, believes all this speculation is much ado about nothing.
“Patrick is fine at Milan and will stay at the club,” Orgnoni told Radio Marte, as relayed by Calciomercato.
Tottenham, then, will have to look elsewhere for a striker capable of taking the pressure of talisman Harry Kane with Fernando Llorente expected to bid farewell to North London in the summer.
