The report explained that Inter valued the Netherlands international at £35m but Spurs could look to bring that fee down to £20m by offering Emerson Royal to the Nerazzurri as part of the deal.
The same publication subsequently claimed a couple of days ago that Tottenham could face competition from Chelsea for the right-back, with the Blues said to be willing to offer Mateo Kovacic to Inter in a straight swap deal.
Calciomercato.it have now backed up Tottenham’s interest in Dumfries, explaining that Conte desires an upgrade on Emerson Royal at right wing-back as the Italian is not getting the ‘desired answers’ from him.
It is alleged that the 53-year-old wants Spurs to raid his former club for Dumfries in January but the report asserts that Simone Inzaghi’s men value the former PSV Eindhoven man at €50m (£43.5m).
Spurs Web Opinion
Swap deals rarely ever go through and I am not convinced that Inter would want Emerson because like Spurs, the Serie A club play with a back three and wing-backs.
It would be difficult for the North London club to find a buyer for the Brazilian in January and I do not expect the Lilywhites to sign a right wing-back until next summer.
