Tottenham have finalized the acquisition of Empoli's goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario in a deal worth an initial £17.2m. The Italian international has committed to a contract with the club until 2028, and he will don the No 13 jersey for Spurs.
Vicario's outstanding two-year stint at Empoli saw him make 71 appearances across all competitions for the Serie A team. As a result of his remarkable performances, he received his first international call-up in September 2002. Additionally, the agreement incorporates extra bonuses along with the initial fee.
Vicario is set to be the replacement for Hugo Lloris, whose 11 years at Spurs could end this summer with the World Cup winner signalling his intent to move on for a new challenge.
