As Tottenham Hotspur look to continue their rebuild this summer, reports from Italy have suggested that they have joined Aston Villa in the race to sign Roma winger Matías Soulé.
Despite finishing in 17th place in the Premier League for back-to-back seasons, Roberto De Zerbi's Tottenham Hotspur have had an ambitious start to the summer transfer window.
The free signings of Marcos Senesi and Andrew Robertson have already been announced by the Lilywhites, while moves for a number of world class players have also been touted.
One area of the field which Spurs have reportedly been keen to improve this summer is out wide, with wingers on both sides of the pitch set to be targets.
The latest name to be linked with a move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Roma's Argentinian winger Soulé is reportedly available for around €40m this summer.
The former Juventus man, who joined Roma from the Old Lady back in 2024 for around €28m, is keen on a move to the Premier League, with a number of other English sides interested in a move for his signature.
One of those sides is the current Europa League champions Aston Villa, who themselves have been linked with a move for a number of different wingers this summer.
As a result of Spurs' lack of European football for next season, De Zerbi's side are likely to be in the market for similar players to that of the Villans this summer, potentially presenting a stumbling block in their transfer plans.
The 23 year-old made 42 appearances across all competitions last season, scoring seven goals and registering eight assists, as Roma qualified for the UEFA Champions League ahead of next season.
Having played for Argentina's youth squads across various levels, Soulé is yet to make his debut for his national team and was left out of their squad for the 2026 World Cup this summer.
Borussia Dortmund have also been credited with an interest in the Roma man, though his large price tag may prove too much for the Bundesliga outfit.
Predominantly a left footed right winger, Soulé has also played in attacking midfield across his career and has the technical ability to adapt to the demands that De Zerbi would expect from him.
