Tottenham Hotspur appear to be closing in on a move for Roma winger Erik Lamela.
Respected Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has confirmed on twitter that the 21-year-old’s agent is in London and says Lamela will join his representative in the capital on Monday night or Tuesday morning, presumably to finalise a move to Spurs.
The North London outfit have made securing the Argentina international their top priority after Willian opted to join Chelsea at the eleventh hour.
It is believed Lamela, who scored 15 Serie A goals last term, will cost in the region of £30m.
Di Marzio’s update was confirmed by fellow Sky Italia reporter Fabrizio Romano:
Erik Lamela's agent is now in London. Working about last details between Tottenham and Roma. Then, Lamela will travel to London. #THFC
