From the source
Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Youssouf Fofana, as the midfielder’s impressive performances at Sevilla have attracted attention across Europe. The 27-year-old French international has become a key player at the Spanish club since joining on loan from AC Milan last summer, and his form has attracted several high-profile suitors.
According to a report from Ficherio, Tottenham and Juventus have already made initial contact with AC Milan to explore signing the midfielder at the end of the season.
The opportunity to sign Fofana could be particularly attractive for Tottenham, who need greater quality and physicality in their midfield. The Frenchman has shown he can dictate proceedings in the middle of the park, while his defensive awareness and athleticism could make him a valuable addition to the squad.
