The forward enjoyed a blistering 2020/2021 campaign and bagged 21 goals and two assists over 37 Italian top flight matches (Transfermarkt).
Regarded as one of the most promising strikers in Europe, it is believed that Paratici is now looking to Italy for new additions and could compete with his old colleague from Juventus, Federico Cherubini.
The Verdict: Do it…
Enjoying a remarkable season for Fiorentina, it’s safe to say Vlahovic would be a monumental coup for Spurs this summer.
Lauded as ‘incredible’ by Forza Italian Football chief Conor Clancy (via This is Futbol), his numbers certainly back that statement.
Alongside his goals, Vlahovic managed a threatening 2.3 shots per 90 over his Serie A appearances – even more than superstar Son Heung-min averaged last year at Spurs (WhoScored).
Former Italy international Antonio Di Natale is one of his many admirers and believes he is a ‘phenomenon’ (Rtv38 via TUTTOmercatoWEB).
With so much praise and a fantastic goal tally this season, it is hard to envisage the towering 6 foot 3 striker not being a success wherever he lands next.
