The Italian club signed Simeone from Genoa only in the summer of 2017, and the youngster has already developed into a key player for the Viola.

The former River Plate striker has scored seven goals and provided three assists in 20 Serie A appearances for Fiorentina so far this season, according to WhoScored.

Fiorentina may (reportedly) be reluctant to sell the youngster, but Tottenham should still make a move for Simeone.

The youngster has developed well over the past few years, and his style of play, natural ability and age make him perfect for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.
