Juventus and AC Milan circle for Tottenham Hotspur forward
The 23-year-old has largely disappointed during his spell at White Hart Lane since he arrived from Roma in 2013, and could be on the move in the summer.
According to the Daily Mail, Juventus are eyeing the Argentinian as a potential replacement for the now departed Carlos Tevez, with Bianconeri coach Massimiliano Allegri keen to bring a creative forward to the Juventus Stadium.
However, Juve could have competition from Milan as Sport Mediaset report that the Rossoneri are hoping to lure Lamela to the Stadio Meazza as they look to further continue their summer spending spree.
As a result of these links to Italy, Spurs, according to Sky Sports, will no let Lamela go at any cost and intend to keep him in the Premier League next season.
Lamela arrives at Tottenham for a fee of around €30 million, and has bagged only six goals in 59 appearances for the Lilywhites.
