Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur are on the verge of signing Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster on a free transfer, according to journalists Fabrizio Romano and Mike McGrath.
Well-known and well-respected journalist Romano has reported on Twitter that Forster has already reached full agreement with Tottenham.
The former Celtic goalkeeper will move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as a replacement for Pierluigi Gollini, who will return to his parent club Atalanta after a loan spell at Tottenham.
The Telegraph journalist McGrath has reported that the 34-year-old goalkeeper will undergo a medical at Tottenham this week.
The Telegraph have mentioned in their report that Forster is ‘set to undergo a medical before completing a free transfer from Southampton’.
Fraser Forster to leave Southampton for Tottenham Hotspur
Exciting
In our opinion, it is very exciting for Tottenham Hotspur fans that the club are already making a signing.
Now, of course, Fraser Forster is not exactly a player who would make the first team better, but he would push Hugo Lloris and would be a good back-up option.
Tottenham will play in the Champions League next season and will also try to compete with Liverpool and Manchester United, so it is good to see that they are already starting on their summer business early.
