Inter Milan is actively pursuing Tottenham Hotspur’s Guglielmo Vicario, aiming to secure him as their new primary goalkeeper for the upcoming season. Sporting director Piero Ausilio has reportedly traveled to London to expedite negotiations for the highly sought-after stopper.
The Italian international goalkeeper has been on Inter’s radar for some time, and the club is now ready to make a definitive move ahead of what is anticipated to be a busy summer transfer window.
Vicario’s estimated valuation, ranging between €15 million and €20 million, is considered well within Inter’s financial reach. The Nerazzurri are keen to finalize the deal swiftly to prevent rival clubs from entering the race for his signature.
Vicario Set to Replace Sommer at Inter
This potential signing would signify a significant change in the club’s goalkeeping hierarchy, with current first-choice Yann Sommer expected to remain but transition into a backup role.
While the Swiss international has delivered reliable and high-quality performances since joining the club, Inter’s management has decided it’s time to plan for the long term by bringing in a younger option between the posts.
Since his move to Tottenham, Vicario has established himself as one of the Premier League’s most dependable goalkeepers, making him well-prepared for a leading role at one of Europe’s biggest clubs.
Furthermore, with the Italian national team’s goalkeeping situation under increasing scrutiny following their recent World Cup elimination, a transfer to Inter could significantly boost Vicario’s chances of securing a spot in the Azzurri squad under future management.
