Some Tottenham fans on social media are convinced that they’ll sign Nicolo Zaniolo if Paulo Fonseca is appointed as their new manager.
Fonseca of course worked with the Italian at Roma, and Tottenham fans believe he may join the club if the Portuguese boss is appointed.
Fonseca and Zaniolo are bound to have built up something of a rapport over the past couple of seasons, so a move to re-unite the pair would be logical.
Of course, this is all just speculation at the moment, and it could be a case of Spurs fans putting two and two together to make five, but it has to be said that there is some method to the madness.
Indeed, Zaniolo is a long-term target for Tottenham, and he reportedly wanted a move to Tottenham at one point.
He’s bound to still have his admirers at the club, and with Fabio Paratici, a man who has an extensive knowledge of Serie A, also set to come in, this move starts to make a lot more sense.
This idea is of course dependent on Tottenham appointing Fonseca, who they are supposedly in talks with, but as we saw last week with Antonio Conte, Spurs being in talks with a manager doesn’t necessarily mean an appointment is imminent.
However, things certainly seem to be moving in the right direction on that front, so much so that Tottenham fans are already predicting one of Fonseca’s signings in the shape of Zaniolo.
