Tottenham are reportedly preparing a mega-January bid for Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic.

TuttoMercato claims Antonio Conte has identified the 21-year-old Serb as Harry Kane’s ‘successor’.

Vlahovic is also reported target for both Manchester United and Arsenal.

The 6ft 3in hitman is valued at £70million and has scored 13 times in all competitions this season.

Meanwhile, Antonio Rudiger wants to stay at Chelsea next summer.

But the club’s latest contract offer is still not satisfactory.

Fabrizio Romano claims both parties remain some way apart in negotiations, despite Rudiger’s eagerness to remain in London.

And the lengthy negotiations have seen Real Madrid, PSG and Bayern Munich all register their interest, with Rudiger set to become a free agent if Chelsea do not agree to his terms.

Finally, Newcastle bosses are reportedly ready to open their wallets and offer ‘crazy money’ in order to convince Marcelo Brozovic to join the club.

The 29-year-old Inter midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and is also a target for Manchester United.

Newcastle, according to The Athletic, are willing to offer mouth watering figures in a bid to land the Croatian international when negotiations can begin on January 1.

But with Newcastle yet to win a league game this campaign and currently rooted to the bottom of the table, Brozovic is unlikely to be willing to agree terms in January.
