Tottenham & Manchester United searching for goalkeepers

Well, both Antonio Conte and Erik ten Hag are on the lookout for new glovesmen, as Hugo Lloris and David de Gea find themselves with uncertain futures.

Spurs are looking to replace their No.1 as he turns 36 in December, while at Old Trafford, the Spain international sees his contract expire in July, and an extension is yet to be signed.

Therefore, both Tottenham and Manchester United have asked about Mamardashvili.

The £24,856-a-week man has caught the eye on Spain with some terrific performances for Valencia, making 11 appearances in all competitions this season, keeping two clean sheets.

Tutto Mercato Web believe Valencia value Mamardashvili in the region of €25m – €30m (£22m – £26m) amid interest from the Premier League, despite the fact the Georgia international has a release clause worth €100m (£86m).

Juventus are also said to be keen on signing the 22-year-old next year.

Tottenham & Manchester United battle could be decided by one thing

Interestingly, Tutto Mercato Web state that Mamardashvili dreams of playing in the Champions League.

Tottenham are currently involving in Europe’s greatest club competition, although Manchester United find themselves in the Europa League after a disappointing 2021/22 campaign.

The north Londoners are also well placed to qualify for the tournament again in 2023 as they sit third in the Premier League, while the Red Devils are just on the fringes of the top four in sixth place, one point away from fourth.

With Mamardashvili’s dream in mind, his next destination could simply come down to whoever qualifies for the Champions League out of Tottenham and Manchester United.

If both sides qualify, then it will be interesting to see where the Valencia No.25 ends up.
