Tottenham considered favourites to sign Serie A defender

Tottenham are being linked with a number of players ahead of the summer transfer window. 

Ange Postecoglou has recently suggested that the club needs to undergo some changes, indicating that there could be quite some movements in the upcoming window.

Among various positions, Spurs are said to be targeting another defender this summer, preferably someone capable of playing both as a centre-back and a left-back.

Recent rumours have linked Tottenham to Torino’s Alessandro Buongiorno, suggesting he could be a potential addition to strengthen their defensive options.

As quoted by TEAMtalk, he said:
