Italian agent Massimo Brambati has said that Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur want to sign Arsenal January transfer target Dusan Vlahovic, as quoted in TuttoJuve.
Brambati, a former Torino defender, haș claimed that Tottenham head coach Conte wants to sign Vlahovic from Fiorentina to play alongside Harry Kane and not as his replacement.
The London Evening Standard have reported that Arsenal are keen on signing the 21-year-old Serbia international striker in the January transfer window.
TuttoJuve quotes Brambati as saying: “There is also Tottenham. Without Kane? Conte wants them together.”
Should Arsenal worry about Tottenham interest in Dusan Vlahovic?
In our view, Arsenal should be worried about Brambati’s comments on Conte wanting to sign Vlahovic.
Now, we have covered Tottenham’s interest in the Fiorentina striker before.
However, what is interesting from Brambati’s comments is that Conte is planning to play Vlahovic and Kane together.
That is very exciting indeed for Tottenham fans.
Now, Conte personally wanting Vlahovic is a potential worry for Arsenal.
Sky Sports recently reported that one of the factors that Vlahovic will take into account while choosing his next club is the coach.
Conte is a world-class manager who has a big reputation in Italy.
After all, Conte won league titles with Juventus – as a player and as a manager.
Oh, he also guided Inter to the Scudetto last season.
So, in our opinion, Conte personally looking to sign Vlahovic could be a problem for Arsenal.
