Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly stepping up their efforts to sign Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso, with head coach Roberto De Zerbi keen to strengthen his options at full-back ahead of the upcoming transfer windows.
According to Calciomercato, the North London club are actively exploring the possibility of bringing the 26-year-old Italian international to the Premier League. However, convincing Juventus to part ways with one of their key players will not be straightforward.
The Bianconeri have reportedly set their asking price between €30 million and €40 million, making it clear that they will not consider a sale unless their financial demands are satisfied.

Juventus Set Their Price for Cambiaso
Juventus remain in a strong negotiating position, with Cambiaso tied to a long-term contract in Turin. The Italian giants are therefore under no immediate pressure to sell and are determined to receive an offer that reflects the defender’s importance to the team.
The 26-year-old has established himself as one of the most versatile full-backs in Italian football, attracting interest from several clubs across Europe. His ability to perform consistently at both domestic and international level has further increased his market value.
Unless Tottenham are prepared to meet Juventus’ demands, reaching an agreement could prove difficult.
Why De Zerbi Wants the Juventus Defender
Cambiaso’s profile makes him an attractive option for De Zerbi, whose tactical philosophy places considerable importance on technical quality, positional intelligence and flexibility in possession.
The Juventus defender can operate on either flank and is equally comfortable moving into central midfield areas during build-up play. These qualities would give Tottenham additional tactical solutions and make him a valuable addition to De Zerbi’s system.
Spurs’ interest reflects their ambition to strengthen several key areas of the squad and provide their manager with players capable of adapting to different tactical situations.

For now, Juventus have made their position clear: Cambiaso will not leave Turin cheaply. Tottenham’s determination to sign him could lead to an interesting transfer battle, but a deal will ultimately depend on whether the Premier League side are willing to meet the Bianconeri’s €30–40 million valuation.
