Juventus have reached an agreement in principle with Guglielmo Vicario, though the move to bring him from Tottenham to Turin is proving complicated.<\/strong><\/p>\n Reports suggest Spurs have grown reluctant to sell, with head coach Roberto De Zerbi said to be a keen admirer of the goalkeeper and reluctant to lose him.<\/p>\n Tottenham\u2019s valuation of Vicario sits between \u20ac25m and \u20ac30m, while the goalkeeper is said to earn around \u20ac4.5m per year. His contract runs until 2028, a detail that shapes any future negotiation.<\/p>\n The push for a new number one follows a sequence of costly errors from Michele Di Gregorio against Lazio, Inter and Como that shook confidence in his hold on the shirt.<\/p>\n Pre-season hasn\u2019t helped his case either, with further blunders in a recent friendly defeat to Inter doing little to ease the pressure.<\/p>\n Signed for \u20ac18m in 2024, Di Gregorio has produced moments of real quality, including a pivotal save in Venice that helped secure Champions League qualification, but the broader body of work has left the club with doubts.<\/p>\n His future now looks close to resolved. Di Gregorio is reportedly nearing a move to Valencia, structured as a loan with a conditional obligation to buy worth around \u20ac15m.<\/p>\n Juventus\u2019 standards in goal are framed by a lineage running from Zoff and Tacconi through Peruzzi, Buffon and Szczesny.<\/p>\n Against that history, consistency is currency, and the willingness to explore alternatives less than two years after Di Gregorio\u2019s arrival underlines how seriously the issue is being treated at Continassa.<\/p>\n Vicario, who came through Empoli before joining Tottenham, is approaching 30 and is understood to be open to a return to Serie A.<\/p>\n Spurs\u2019 recent seasons have been turbulent domestically even as they lifted the Europa League last term, and Juventus reportedly see an opportunity, even with De Zerbi now pushing back.<\/p>\n Beyond pure ability, Juventus\u2019 recruitment logic reportedly extends to squad composition, with a stated desire to increase Italian representation in a dressing room currently anchored domestically by Cambiaso and Locatelli among the regular starters.<\/p>\n Vicario, an Italian international with Serie A pedigree, fits that brief closely.<\/p>\n Zion Suzuki of Parma had been considered a genuine alternative, but Paris Saint-Germain have since made a competing offer worth around \u20ac28m plus bonuses, complicating that path for Juventus.<\/p>\n A more ambitious name has also surfaced. Reports link Juventus to Liverpool\u2019s Alisson, contingent on the club banking Champions League qualification money to fund a move of that scale.<\/p>\n Marco Carnesecchi of Atalanta remains in the picture too. At 26, he\u2019s arguably been Serie A\u2019s most reliable goalkeeper in recent weeks, with his price put between \u20ac30m and \u20ac40m.<\/p>\n Separately, exploratory conversations around a free transfer for Mike Maignan have cooled, with hopes diminishing as the Frenchman\u2019s contract renewal talks with AC Milan advance.<\/p>\n The reshuffle extends further down the list. Mattia Perin has previously indicated a desire for regular first-team football, while Carlo Pinsoglio may consider retirement.<\/p>\n That\u2019s prompted Juventus to compile a secondary list including Ivan Provedel, Lorenzo Montip\u00f2, Wladimiro Falcone, Federico Ravaglia and academy graduate Emil Audero.<\/p>\n Marios Mandas, now at Bournemouth, also remains under consideration as Juventus seek structural clarity across the position.<\/p>\n The situation remains fluid. Inter are also reportedly monitoring Vicario as a potential long-term successor to Yann Sommer, adding competition to Juventus\u2019 interest.<\/p>\n The key question now is whether Tottenham can be talked out of their reluctance to sell at the reported valuation, given De Zerbi\u2019s stance.<\/p>\n For now, Vicario sits as an agreement in principle rather than a completed transfer, with Di Gregorio\u2019s Valencia exit looking like the more advanced piece of business.<\/p>\n The coming weeks will test both Tottenham\u2019s resolve and Juventus\u2019 patience as they work through competing priorities across the goalkeeping department.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nWhy Juventus Are Rethinking Their Goalkeeping Plans<\/h2>\n
