Goal have claimed that representatives from Lazio have met with Pierluigi Gollini over recent days to discuss a potential transfer in the summer.
Gollini has not made a single Premier League appearance for Spurs either under Nuno Espirito Santo or Antonio Conte since joining on a season-long loan deal from Atalanta in the summer.
This calls into question whether Tottenham are going to exercise the option to buy the Italian goalkeeper permanently for £13m (Sky Sports).
TuttoMercatoWeb were the first to report last month that Lazio had expressed interest in signing the on-loan Atalanta shot-stopper in the summer.
Lazio’s interest in the 26-year-old was subsequently backed up by CalcioMercato before Corriere della Sera (via Sport Witness) stated last week that Gollini’s move to Maurizio Sarri’s side was ‘gaining momentum’.
Goal have now revealed that Lazio have identified the Atalanta shot-stopper as their number one goalkeeper target ahead of the summer.
It is asserted that the Serie A club are looking to snap up the Italian goalkeeper for around €10m (£8.3m) when the transfer market reopens.
Lazio even allegedly met Gollini’s entourage over ‘recent days’ to discuss a move to the Stadio Olimpico.
Spurs Web Opinion
Gollini will be desperate to play football again next season on the back of warming the bench at Spurs. So, he will likely return to Serie A in the summer.
It will be interesting to see whether Tottenham go for another number two like Hart or Gollini in the summer or if they sign a young, up and coming goalkeeper who they feel could eventually take over the gloves from Lloris.
