People have high hopes for Vicario at Tottenham
London World have now claimed that the shot-stopper is already seen as a star in Italy, having played a crucial role in helping Empoli comfortably steer clear of relegation last season.
The report claims that there is a ‘firm belief’ among those close to Vicario that he is going to become one of the best in the world.
They are also said to be of the opinion that a move to the Premier League is the best thing that could have happened to him at this stage of his career.
It is alleged that Tottenham are convinced that they have an absolute gem on their hands, with Ange Postecoglou said to be ‘excited’ about the 26-year-old’s capture due to his ball-playing ability and decision-making.
