Tottenham Join Race for Parma Striker Mateo Pellegrino as Club Points to Summer Deal

Parma have ruled out a January sale, targeting a richer summer valuation.

Overview

  • Reports from Italy say Tottenham are monitoring 23-year-old Mateo Pellegrino alongside West Ham and Nottingham Forest, with scouts also from Atlético Madrid and Villarreal.
  • Parma rejected an offer of around €15 million in the summer and indicate they will hold the forward until the off-season unless an exceptional bid arrives.
  • Pellegrino has five goals in eight appearances this season, including a decisive brace against Torino that accelerated interest from England and Spain.
  • The striker joined Parma from Vélez Sarsfield for about €2 million, with Vélez retaining 50% of any future transfer fee, a factor likely to lift the asking price.
  • Coverage names additional suitors such as Roma and, in some reports, Juventus, but no formal bids have been reported to date.
