Tottenham Hotspur are exploring a surprise summer swap deal with Juventus to sign defender Gleison Bremer in exchange for goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.

The Premier League side are actively rebuilding their defence following a thoroughly disappointing recent campaign.

Manager Roberto De Zerbi is eager to recruit the 29-year-old Brazilian centre-back, having admired his commanding performances while coaching in Italy.

The Bianconeri hold a strong negotiating position due to a £50m release clause embedded in the defender’s current contract.

Creative approach to lower valuation

To reduce the overall financial outlay, the North London club are prepared to offer their Italian shot-stopper as a valuable makeweight.

The former Empoli goalkeeper has been heavily linked with a return to his homeland and carries an estimated internal valuation of £17.25m.

This proposed exchange would significantly offset the hefty price tag while providing the Turin giants with a targeted replacement between the posts.

Defensive overhaul taking shape

Pursuing the powerful South American represents a bold strategy considering the Lilywhites have already secured multiple defensive reinforcements.

Experienced full-back Andy Robertson is arriving from Liverpool, while Bournemouth’s Marcos Senesi is expected to join on a free transfer.

The club are also negotiating a deal for Brighton’s Jan Paul van Hecke to supplement existing defensive options like Micky van de Ven.

However, with established figures Cristian Romero and Radu Dragusin both anticipated to depart, securing a dominant leader remains essential for De Zerbi’s tactical vision.
