Premier League trio Fulham, West Ham United and Brighton and Hove Albion are keen on a potential £10 million plus deal for Torino midfielder Adrien Tameze.
That is according to Tuttosport, a player who joined Torino from Hellas Verona for around £2.5 million only a few months ago potentially on his way out of the Granata already, earning the Serie A outfit a quick profit along the way.
Adrien Tameze, the report adds, is valued in excess of £10 million these days.
There is interest from Fulham, West Ham United and Brighton too, with Tameze’s £20,000-a-week wages likely to rise substantially if he makes the trip from Italy to England in the mid-season window.
The 29 year old, capped by France at youth level, is a defensively-minded midfielder who can also play at right-back. Tameze, once of Atalanta and Nice, boasts some of the best ball-winning statistics in Serie A and could be an alternative to Fulham’s number one Joao Palhinha replacement, Andre Trindade (WhoScored).
According to Jorge Nicola and Evening Standard, Fulham are leading the race for the much-coveted Andre. The Brazil international is likely to arrive at Craven Cottage to the tune of £30 million. But, amid rival interest from Manchester United and co, it makes sense for Fulham to line up potential back-ups should those best laid plans go awry.
Tameze models his game on that of Arsenal legend and former Nice boss Patrick Vieira. He came close to joining Cardiff City in 2019 and was previously a target for Aston Villa, Sheffield United, Burnley and Everton.
“He had an excellent game,” Torino coach Ivan Juric told DAZN after a narrow defeat to local rivals Juventus back in October. “He’s a golden boy. He what we needed on a human level too.
“He’s doing very well, I have little to say (negative about Adrien Tameze).”
