Tottenham are reportedly continuing to work on a deal for Nicolo Zaniolo but their proposed offer has failed to convince Roma.
Spurs coach Antonio Conte is a big fan of the 23-year-old Italian forward and he’s incredibly keen to bring the Giallorossi talent to North London this month. Zaniolo had an interesting campaign last season under Jose Mourinho, experiencing a number of ups and downs as he went on to score two goals in 28 Serie A games.
As reported by La Repubblica, Tottenham have proposed a €55m total offer for Zaniolo, which is split between a fixed cash sum and the inclusion of either Japhet Tanganga or Tanguy Ndombélé.
Roma are unconvinced by this and Mourinho does not want to lose the talented 23-year-old, even if things didn’t go perfectly last year. Zaniolo himself has rediscovered his fire in the Italian capital and doesn’t want to leave the club anymore, so it’ll take a strong offer from Spurs if they want to push for a deal.
