Liverpool and Tottenham ready to battle for €50m-rated wide player
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso at the end of the season.
The 26-year-old is one of the best left-backs in Italy, and he has been outstanding this season. He has seven goal contributions this season.
According to a report from TuttoJuve, the two English clubs have recently expressed interest in signing the player, and he could cost around €50 million. However, the valuation could drop if Juventus failed to secure Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign.
It is no surprise that Liverpool is keen on the Italian international. Andrew Robertson will leave the club at the end of the season, and they need to replace him properly. Milos Kerkez has done well in recent months, but they cannot depend on the Hungarian to play every game next season. They need more quality at left back, and Cambiaso would be an excellent addition.
At Tottenham, he could prove to be an upgrade on Destiny Udogie. The Italian has been underwhelming for the north London club, and it will be interesting to see if they can sign his compatriot to replace him. However, they must secure Premier League safety in order to attract the 26-year-old. Cambiaso will not want to play in the second division next season.
The asking price is quite high for a left back, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool or Tottenham decide to pay up. They might look to sign him for a more reasonable amount. They need to improve multiple areas of the team in the summer, and spending around €50 million on a left back might be difficult.
