Nikola Milenkovic would be an exciting signing for Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with the signing of Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic.

According to the Daily Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur are attempting to sign Nikola Milenkovic from Fiorentina and his performances at the World Cup should encourage Mauricio Pochettino’s side that he would be a great addition.

Milenkovic shone for Serbia in Russia, with the 20-year-old putting in a series of displays which belied his tender years.

The centre-back looked superb throughout the tournament, and Spurs should consider him to be an exciting target as a result.

Tottenham already have one of the finest defences in England, but Milenkovic is a player who could advance them in the future.

If he continues to develop, the Serbian international could be one of the best defenders in the world for the years ahead.

And Milenkovic’s potential partnership with Davinson Sanchez should be considered an exciting one for Spurs fans to watch in the coming years.
