AS Roma have turned their attention to a Tottenham Hotspur winger, who the Lilywhites are willing to sell, despite the player featured against both Burnley and Manchester City.
Thomas Frank has decided to start with a front three of Richarlison, Mohammed Kudus and Brennan Johnson in Tottenham’s first two Premier League fixtures.
In both matches, he has brought on Wilson Odobert, who has made a decent impact off the bench. The Frenchman missed a huge chunk of the 2024/25 campaign due to a hamstring injury and will be hoping to show Spurs fans what he can do this season.
According to Alasdair Gold, Thomas Frank has been impressed with Odobert so far, but a new report has now suggested that the winger could be on his way out of the club before the transfer window slams shut.
AS Roma eyeing late Wilson Odobert deal
According to the print edition of Corriere dello Sport, Roma had agreed a deal with Manchester United to sign Jadon Sancho, but the England international has not given his approval for the move.
This has forced the Serie A club to consider other options, and they have now turned their attention to the Tottenham winger.
The report suggests Roma believe that Odobert can improve their attack, and they have been informed by Spurs that the 20-year-old is available for €25m (£22m) this summer.
The outlet claims that the Giallorossi could make a loan offer for the French Under-21 international with an option to buy, but it is not revealed if Tottenham would consider such an offer.
Tottenham are unlikely to consider selling Odobert
Thomas Frank has said that Tottenham’s aim is to compete in all four competitions, and for that, he needs a big squad to work with.
Even if the Lilywhites manage to bring a top-class winger through the door in the final week of the transfer window, it is unlikely that the club would consider cashing in on Odobert.
With some reports suggesting that Dejan Kulusevski is expected to be out until the end of the year, Frank would not want to weaken his attack any further.
