An important meeting took place today in Forte dei Marmi between agent Giuseppe Riso and Tottenham sporting director Fabio Paratici.
Riso is the owner of Gr Sports, an agency that represents clients such as Sandro Tonali, Davide Frattesi, Gianluca Mancini, Matteo Pessina and Bryan Cristante, Andrea Petagna and Nicolo Rovella, amongst others. Paratici seems most comfortable picking up players from Serie A so a meeting with the Italian agent makes sense as Spurs prepare their summer transfer window.
As detailed by TuttoMercatoWeb, Riso and Paratici sat down today in Forte dei Marmi to discuss possible deals for this summer. It’s still unclear which players were discussed at this stage, but it’s unlikely to include Milan midfielder Tonali or Roma’s Mancini.
Updates from this meeting are expected to emerge in the coming days, but it’s clear for now that Paratici is planning to continue raiding Serie A. In January, Spurs picked up Juventus pair Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur and last summer Cristian Romero and Pierluigi Gollini both joined the club, although the latter left after his loan spell ended.
