Report: Spurs enter Cancelo race

By Football Italia staff

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly joined the race to sign Juventus target Joao Cancelo.

According to the Daily Mail, Tottenham have emerged as “serious rivals” for Cancelo, who had been “a priority” for the Bianconeri.

Furthermore, Spurs sent scouts to watch the Valencia right-back in action for Portugal two months ago.

Tottenham lost Kyle Walker to Manchester City earlier in the summer and have only one, first-team right-back left on their books in Kieran Trippier.

However, Trippier pulled up with an injury in Saturday’s friendly against the Old Lady, meaning the Londoners may begin their Premier League campaign next weekend with 20-year-old Kyle Walker-Peters, who has yet to play a competitive match for the club.
