After speaking candidly about a summer contract, the club president of Serie A forward Albert Gudmundsson suggests that Tottenham Hotspur has a strong possibility of landing him.
37-year-old Icelandic international Gudmundsson is capable of playing as a second striker or as a traditional center-forward. He had stints at the Dutch teams Heerenveen, PSV, and AZ Alkmaar before moving to Italy in January 2022 to sign a €1.5 million contract with Genoa.
In the present season, Gudmundsson is having the best season of his career at the highest level. In 34 games, he has achieved 16 goals and 4 assists, including league goals against Bologna, Juventus, and Roma.
Tottenham has evidently taken notice of Gudmundsson’s ascent to the position of most importance and value among Genoa’s players. There have been several rumors lately that Ange Postecoglou’s team is trying to sign the 26-year-old.
In fact, it was reported on April 20 that Tottenham is the overwhelming favorite to finalize a deal with Genoa, even if Juventus is also reportedly interested.
Juve will find it difficult to match Gudmundsson’s €35 million (£30 million) asking price, but Daniel Levy, the chairman of Tottenham, seems unaffected by this.
