Tottenham hold a key advantage over north London rivals Arsenal in the transfer race for Roma star Nicolo Zaniolo.
Spurs enjoyed a successful summer transfer window after completing deals for Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster, Yves Bissouma, Richarlison, Clement Lenglet, Djed Spence and Destiny Udogie. Antonio Conte was keen to add a new attacking midfielder to his squad with the Lilywhites being linked with moves for Christian Eriksen, who decided to join Manchester United, and Zaniolo.
The Gunners signed Fabio Vieira from Porto in a £34million deal but have since been linked with a move for the Italy international as he enters the final two years of his current deal with the Serie A outfit. As football.london reported in August, Spurs weren't close to securing a deal for the 23-year-old after reports suggested the north London outfit has a £46million bid rejected, but the Lilywhites are said to hold a key advantage over their fierce rivals should both clubs look to pursue a deal for Zaniolo.
