Spurs eye move for Verona man Antonin Barak
Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is said to keeping tabs on Hellas Verona midfielder Antonin Barak, with Juventus also another interested party. The 27-year-old has enjoyed a stellar season in Italy's top flight with his performances catching the attention of some of Europe's big-hitters.
Managing 11 goals and four assists so far this season, the Czech international is valued at up to £17million by the CIES football observatory, with Italian publication Mondo Udinese reporting of Conte's interest within the player.
Under contract until June of 2024, Verona's hierarchy may potentially be keen on cashing in on the midfielder at the opportune moment this summer.
