AliousTottenham Hotspur might be prepared to offer €40 million to secure the services of Lazio’s Gustav Isaksen, though they’ll have to contend with Inter Milan, who are also in the race to sign the talented winger.
This insight comes from reports by La Repubblica and Cronaca di Roma, as cited by Calciomercato.
According to La Repubblica, Tottenham have shown strong interest in the young star and are considering a €40 million bid to bring him to north London in the upcoming summer transfer window.
They view him as an ideal fit for the demands of the Premier League. This aligns with earlier reports from the week that identified Tottenham as potential buyers and suggested they might be willing to spend even slightly more than €40 million for the 23-year-old.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan’s manager, Simone Inzaghi, is said to be enamored with Isaksen, believing the player would seamlessly adapt to his preferred 3-5-2 system.
Inzaghi reportedly sees potential in transforming Isaksen into a full-back role. Although neither Inter nor Tottenham have made formal moves yet, both clubs are keeping a close eye on the situation as the summer approaches.
Lazio, on their end, aren’t labeling any of their players as off-limits, meaning they’d be open to negotiating if an offer arrives.
However, with Isaksen being a key figure, tied to the club until 2028, and requiring a replacement if sold, they’d likely demand a hefty fee to start talks.
Whether that figure settles at €40 million or climbs higher is unclear, but Tottenham could find themselves in a tug-of-war with Inter—and a tough negotiation with Lazio—if they push forward with their interest.
