Tottenham monitoring Fiorentina winger Riccardo Sottil
When it comes to the transfer market, Tottenham are simply one of the best in the business.
The latest reports in Italy suggest that Tottenham are monitoring Fiorentina winger Riccardo Sottil.
Sottil made 5 appearances across all competitions for Fiorentina. The 20-year-old has been touted as one of the brightest young prospects in Italy.
Riccardo Sottil has represented Italy at Under-18, Under-19, Under-20 and Under-21 level, winning 9 caps and scoring one goal.
His performances have seen him become the target of many European clubs including Tottenham.
Mauricio Pochettino has always been a manager who keeps his eyes on the most talented young players across the globe.
The report claims that Tottenham manager has extensively scouted Sottil and is considering a move for the winger.
Sottil would provide a good variety to Tottenham’s attack.
According to Calciomercato, “Tottenham have set their sights on Fiorentina’s 20-year-old starlet, Riccardo Sottil. After spending last season on loan at Pescara, the striker has managed to break into the first team of La Viola. The report claims that Tottenham are constantly monitoring the young Italian, who has racked up a total of 150 minutes in two games thus far this season. However, he is yet to get on the scoresheet.”

Fiorentina are not in a position where they need to sell and would like to keep hold of the winger, but right offer may force the club to consider a deal.
Undoubtedly Sottil would be a fantastic recruit for Tottenham.
How strong that interest is and whether Tottenham will make a move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
