Tottenham Hotspur are interested in backing Thomas Frank with a versatile Juventus wide-man, but the Lilywhites have been joined in the race by a Premier League rival and two European clubs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a lot of uncertainty over what Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> will look like next season as the club embark on a new era under Thomas Frank<\/a>, and the supporters are waiting to see what sort of system he employs at N17.<\/p>\n

Frank showed during his time at Brentford that he is a versatile coach, and he was no stranger to deploying three at the back, and that might explain why Spurs have been linked with several wing-backs over recent weeks.<\/p>\n

We have heard that Tottenham are interested in Botafogo left-back Cuiabano<\/a>, while we have also heard suggestions that Spurs may make an approach to re-sign Kyle Walker-Peters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was reported this week that Juventus\u2019 Timothy Weah has emerged as a target for Tottenham<\/a>. Now, a second source has backed up that particular transfer rumour.<\/p>\n

Weah is very versatile, having featured as a conventional right-back, a wing-back and a wing-forward for the Bianconeri, and it is perhaps this versatility that appeals to Frank.<\/p>\n

TEAMTalk<\/a> report that Spurs<\/a> and Everton are both interested in securing the USA international, who scored six goals and provided five assists across all competitions last season.<\/p>\n

This reinforces what Foot Mercato said earlier this week, as both Premier League<\/a> sides have allegedly made contact over a deal for the 25-year-old.<\/p>\n

Weah is said to be on Everton\u2019s shortlist for a new right winger, while Tottenham want to back Thomas Frank with attacking reinforcements. However, RB Leipzig have made contact with Juventus about a possible deal, while Atletico Madrid also admire the winger.<\/p>\n

As the race heats up, it is said that Juventus will not let Weah leave on the cheap this summer.<\/p>\n

Is Weah a Fabio Paratici recommendation?<\/p>\n

Reports indicate that Fabio Paratici is expected to re-join Tottenham in a formal role this summer<\/a> once his FIFA ban expires.<\/p>\n

However, even if he does not and continues being a consultant on paper, Paratici is expected to play a key role in this new era at Spurs<\/a>, alongside the club\u2019s new CEO, Vinai Venkatesham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We know that the 52-year-old knows the ins and outs of the Italian market and given his long-standing relationship with Juventus, he might be the one driving Tottenham\u2019s pursuit of Weah.<\/p>\n
