Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing the Torino midfielder.
According to a report from Italian media outlet La Stampa, Tottenham are interested in signing Torino ace Soualiho Meite this summer, but they will not get him on the cheap.
Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino will surely be desperate to add more quality to his central midfield ranks this summer, having lost Mousa Dembele in January.
Victor Wanyama faces an uncertain future with Tottenham, whilst Harry Winks and Eric Dier’s injury problems will be a real concern for Pochettino.
And Meite could be just the ticket for Spurs.
Italian publication La Stampa claims that Tottenham are keen on signing the 25-year-old Frenchman, although they will have to fork out at least €20 million (£17 million) in order to obtain his signature this summer.
Meite is a powerful central midfielder, and standing at 6ft 2in tall, he really is an impressive physical specimen.
He is also comfortable in possesses, and possesses bags of energy – two attributes that make him ideally suited to the way in which Tottenham play.
And for just £17 million, he would surely be a real coup for Spurs.
