Inter Milan told to sign Tottenham star despite Italy icon defending player he’d replace

Inter Milan have been told that Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario should be in the ‘front row’ when replacing Yann Sommer in the summer.

That is the opinion of Italy’s icon Walter Zenga, who also supported the Swiss international at San Siro.

The 37-year-old’s form has fluctuated this season and there were reports that manager Cristian Chivu was considering dropping him.

However, with his contract ending in the summer, there is still talk of Sommer’s future.

Serie A is a league highly regarded for its goalkeepers, with the Italian national team rarely without an elite option between the posts.

One of those giant glovemakers, Zenga, was asked about Sommer’s form but insists he has no major concerns.

“First of all, a premise: if we focus on a goalkeeper’s mistakes, we will never get over them. Yann is a high-performance player, a guarantee. He has experience and quality,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

Asked what he liked about the veteran, he added: “Self-control. Nothing can affect him.”

With Sommer’s future in doubt, there is talk of who will replace him at the San Siro.

And Zenga, who played 473 games for Internazionale, has given his opinion on who should come into play.
