Local media confirms transfer approach from Tottenham for 31-year-old title-winning star

Tottenham Hotspur were reportedly keen on securing the services of the Napoli defender Amir Rrahmani during the summer transfer window. 

According to a report from CalcioNapoli24, the Premier League made two approaches to sign the 31-year-old central defender in the summer, but Napoli blocked both attempts. They are hoping to agree on a new contract with the Kosovo International. 

He will be out of contract in the summer of 2027, and he has been a key player for Napoli. They do not want to lose the player anytime soon. It remains to be seen whether they can convince him to commit his long-term future to the club. 

Spurs do not need Amir Rrahmani

Tottenham are already well-stocked in the defensive unit, and signing another central defender would make very little sense. They should look to invest in the attacking unit instead. They could use more cutting-edge in the final third. 

Joining Spurs would not make a lot of sense for the 31-year-old defender either. He would not be a regular starter ahead of Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven. Sitting on the bench at the North London club will not be an appealing option.
