Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly eyeing a late swoop for Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli as they seek to bolster their midfield options before the transfer deadline. With Pierre-Emile Højbjerg recently departing the club, Spurs are keen to add quality and depth to their midfield, and Locatelli appears to be the prime target.

Locatelli, who has had a mixed spell at Juventus after initially impressing, could be available for the right price. Despite his strong start in Turin, his role has become less certain under Thiago Motta, and with four years remaining on his contract, Juventus may be open to a sale if a suitable offer comes in.

Tottenham are reportedly prepared to offer €24 million plus bonuses for the 26-year-old Italian international, a move that could see him revive his career in the Premier League. With the recent signing of Dominic Solanke boosting their attack, securing Locatelli could round off a successful transfer window for Spurs as they look to push for a top-four finish.
