The 22-year-old prospect may cost Spurs up to £60 million to sign.
As Tottenham and AC Milan swoop for Joshua Zirkzee, Bologna is anticipated to demand a hefty sum, according to the print version of Corriere dello Sport (as reported by Sport Witness). Since moving from Bayern Munich to Bologna, Zirkzee has been a huge success in Serie A. This season, he has scored 11 goals and supplied six assists in all competitions (Transfermarkt). Numerous Italian sources have stated over the past month that Tottenham is closely monitoring the Dutchman’s development in advance of the summer window (TMW).
Joshua Zirkzee might cost Bologna up to £60 million.
Prior to the summer transfer season, Corriere has identified Milan and Spurs as the two main candidates for Zirkzee’s signature. According to the source, Ange Postecoglou’s team is looking for a top-tier player to replace Harry Kane, and the Serie A star seems to fit the criteria. According to the article, Zerkzee has a buy-back clause worth €40 million (£34.3 million) with Bayern. If this clause is not activated, Bologna may ask for between €60 and €70 million (£51.4 and £60 million) for the player.
According to the report, Tottenham has a “strong interest” in the striker, and if more Premier League teams decide to bid for him, the price may increase even more. Spurs Online Views Clubs are in for a major shock if they anticipate Premier League teams to continue spending as much money this summer as they have in recent years.
The days of English teams shelling out over £50 million for each Tom, Dick, and Harry are now a thing of the past as the PSR regulations are being properly enforced. If someone were to pay more than £35–40 million for Zirkzee, I’d be shocked.
