Everton and Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Marash Kumbulla.
According to Hellas1903, Hellas Verona are seeking a bidding war for reported Everton and Tottenham Hotspur target Marash Kumbulla.
The talented central defender has been tipped with a summer move.
Everton are reportedly keen (TuttoNapoli), while fellow Premier League side Tottenham are accredited with an interest by Italian editorial FirenzeViola.
Kumbulla has been a standout in Serie A this season, averaging 1.8 tackles and 2.9 clearances per league game, while his pass completion rate stands at a decent 84.2% (Whoscored).
The 20-year-old’s form has helped Verona go on a nine-game unbeaten run in Serie A, where they have taken four points off the top two Lazio and Juventus prior to the Covid-19 suspension.
According to Sky Sports Italia, Kumbulla’s value has increase by 150% this term.
Verona know they will likely lose him. According to Hellas1903, they are keen to start an auction amid an opening offer of £17 million from Inter.
Such a figure shouldn’t put off either Everton or Tottenham.
Everton are seemingly keen to strengthen their defence. The Independent claim Lille defender Gabriel had completed a medical ahead of a £27 million move, but a delay could see them miss out.
Kumbulla may be an alternative option for the Toffees.
Spurs, meanwhile, will look for a long-term replacement for Jan Vertonghen who is out of contract this summer while Toby Aldweireld turned 31 in March.
