Tottenham Hotspur have made contact with the agent of Italian Raoul Bellanova ahead of the summer window.

The appointment of Ange Postecoglou has seen numerous players arrive at Hotspur Way over his two transfer windows.

Tottenham interest in Bellanova

According to Torino Granata, Spurs are one of the Premier League clubs who are keen on the Torino wing-back.

Spurs eyeing new full-back

The two starting positions at full-back have been filled by Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro.

However, The Spurs News have been told the north London club are targeting a versatile full-back over the summer.

Former Spurs player Kyle Walker-Peters is a player who is said to be on the radar of those at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

And Bellanova is a player who has been in demand for a number of years now.

It is even reported Pep Guardiola came close to signing him at Manchester City back in 2019.

The 23-year-old can operate as either a right-back or a right wing-back which could see him provide perfect cover for Porro.

Emerson Royal’s recent display against Wolves left a lot uninspired, so perhaps more reinforcement could be coming to the Spurs backline.
