Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Dinamo Zagreb central defender Josip Sutalo, who was linked with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal earlier this year, according to TMW.
Tottenham Hotspur want Arsenal-linked Josip Sutalo
TMW have reported that Tottenham are monitoring the growth and progress of Sutalo, who is a teammate of Spurs wing-back Ivan Perisic in the Croatia national football team.
The 22-year-old centre-back and Perisic are part of the Croatia squad for the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
This is not the first time that a club from North London has been linked with Sutalo.
Earlier this year, Arsenal were named as suitors for the Dinamo Zagreb star.
Italian outlet La Lazio Siamo Noi reported in March 2022 that Arsenal, Lazio and Atalanta all were monitoring the youngster.
The report claimed that Zagreb valued the defender at €7 million (£6 million).
We covered the report here on HITC Sport.
Stats
Josip Sutalo has made six appearances in the UEFA Champions League for Dinamo Zagreb so far this season.
The 22-year-old Croatia international centre-back has scored one goal in nine SuperSport HNL matches so far this campaign.
Now, Zagreb may decide to increase their price-tag on Sutalo because of his involvement in the World Cup, but it is unlikely to be too high and would still be affordable for Tottenham or Arsenal in the middle of the season.
