Spurs: Conte eyeing Dumfries | FootballFanCast.com

Tottenham Hotspur are focused on a deal to deliver Denzel Dumfries to north London within the January switch window.

What’s the discuss?

That’s in keeping with a report by Italian media outlet Calciomercato.it (through Sport Witness), who declare that Antonio Conte is trying to signal a brand new proper wing-back within the winter market, and has ear-marked the Inter Milan flanker as certainly one of his high targets for the place.

The report goes on to state that, whereas the 26-year-old is believed to be valued at a determine of round €50m (£44m) by the Serie A aspect, Conte may look to ship Emerson Royal to the San Siro as a part of the deal for the Netherlands worldwide – one thing that will reportedly tempt the Nerazzurri.

Bin Emerson, get Dumfries

Contemplating simply how spectacular Dumfries has been for Inter since his €14m (£12.2m) transfer to Italy again in the summertime of 2021, coupled with how poor Emerson has been for Spurs since his £26m swap to north London the identical summer time, it’s straightforward to see why Conte could be focused on a player-plus-cash deal for the 26-year-old.

Certainly, over his 33 Serie A appearances in his debut marketing campaign on the San Siro final trip, the £44m-rated Dumfries was in distinctive type going forwards, scoring 5 objectives, registering 4 assists and creating six huge possibilities for his teammates, along with taking a mean of 1.2 photographs, making 0.8 key passes and finishing 0.5 dribbles per recreation.

Compared, over Emerson’s 31 Premier League fixtures in 2021/22, the £35m-rated full-back was in slightly much less lethal type, scoring one objective, offering one help and creating one huge likelihood, in addition to taking a mean of 0.5 photographs, making 0.9 key passes and finishing 0.5 dribbles per outing.

It has been an analogous story within the present marketing campaign, with the £54k-per-week Dutchman having already scored one objective, registered two assists and created eight huge possibilities over 14 league appearances, whereas the £40k-per-week Brazilian has scored no objectives, supplied one help and created no huge possibilities over his 11 high flight fixtures this time period.

As such, with Conte recognized to desire his wing-backs to be extra attack-minded than defensive, it’s clear that the “difference maker” Dumfries could be a significantly better match to the Italian’s tactical set-up in north London, main us to consider that an Emerson-plus-cash deal for the 37-cap star could be an unbelievable deal for Spurs to drag off this winter.
