“An avalanche of money” – Tottenham’s Paratici is considering 80 million euro Swoop “maxi operation” for two players
A longtime admirer of Nikola Milenkovic and Dusan Vlahovic, Fabio Paratici keeps an eye on the two Fiorentina players as he continues his quest to turn Tottenham inside out.
The football director has already spent a lot of money giving Nuno Espirito Santo the best possible team to forget the José Mourinho era and the two Serbs could follow suit after the takeovers of Bryan Gil, Pierluigi Gollini and Cristian Romero.
That’s what Corriere Fiorentino says, who explains that Paratici “would like to bring her to London”.
His idea is to “complete a maxi operation that could bring in more than 80 million euros in the meantime into the coffers of the Fiorentina” while he tries to negotiate a double contract for the two.
This is seen as a “money avalanche” to which any club, “especially in Italy, would find it difficult to say no”.

They are two very different companies, however, as Fiorentina is more open to the idea of selling Milenkovic after the West Ham deal failed, but Vlahovic is a completely different fish.
Serie A owner Rocco Commisso doesn’t want to lose his star striker but if he were he wants to make sure a large amount of money comes in in compensation.
Corriere Fiorentino points out that “if Harry Kane were to be sold, Spurs would go straight to the purple center-forward” before reiterating Monday’s claims that Vlahovic had already been offered a five-year contract offer of € 5m / year + 1 € million bonuses added to a registration fee of € 2 million.
It is “impossible” for Fiorentina, who have tried to renew the goalscorer, to achieve this, but Commisso “does not want to give in easily and is demanding no less than 70 million euros for his protégé”.
As for Milenkovic, “Spurs may be the right solution” as it is “difficult, almost impossible, to convince him to extend his contract, which is about to expire in a year.”
All in all a worrying situation for Fiorentina, but much seems to depend on Harry Kane being sold, which means that Vlahovic is likely to stay in Serie A until then (unless Atlético Madrid steps in).
Milenkovic, on the other hand, could be a relatively straightforward deal.
