Tottenham strike deal for Roma starlet

Having beaten Rubin Kazan in the race for Antonio Sanabria’s signature, Spurs are set to add further firepower to their attack as they aim build on last season’s title challenge

Sanabria - Roma 

Roma forward Antonio Sanabria is set to swap the Italian capital for London, after the Giallorossi agreed a fee with Tottenham Hotspur for the youngster.

During a loan spell with Sporting Gijon in Spain last season, the 20-year-old caught the eye of a number of Europe’s top clubs by bagging 11 La Liga goals and one assist.

That form has led to Spurs swooping for his signature and they are closing in on their man after agreeing to pay €15 million for the talented Paraguayan.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side have beaten out stiff competition from Russian club Rubin Kazan, who were willing to pay the same amount for the striker, but Spurs have already agreed terms with Sanabria’s representatives.

The Giallorossi are likely to use the money from the youngster’s sale to fund moves for Fiorentina midfielder Milan Badelj and a new right-back, with Pablo Zabaleta and Mattia De Sciglio their prime targets.

During a lunch with sporting director Walter Sabatini in Florence, coach Luciano Spalletti agreed to the sale of Sanabria, who began his career at Barcelona before moving to the Stadio Olimpico in 2014.
