Tottenham
Hotspurs are set to beat Serie A side AC Milan for the signature of Dynamo
Zagreb teenager Vinko Soldo, as per Tuttomercatoweb.
The
Croatia Under 17 star has been on Spurs and Milan radars for the past few months and both
are keen to land him this summer, but the recent reports claim that the Premier League side are likely to win the race.
Spurs
have sent their representatives to Bulgaria where currently the Under 17 Euro
tournament is being held.
Tottenham
scouts were there in the game between Croatia and Austria few days ago and
monitored the player performance.
The
17-year-old center-back has been exceptional for his country as they have not
conceded a goal in the tournament.
Soldo
will be out of contract this summer and Dynamo Zagreb will not get a single penny from his move. The Croatian side are keen to seal his deal so that he can be sold in
the future for a decent transfer fee.
While
on the other hand Spurs are also hoping to beat Arsenal for Celtic defender
Virgil van Dijk.
The
Dutchman who is rated at £10million has said that it will be difficult to
reject a move to Premier League, according to London24.
