Tottenham are rivalling Aston Villa for the signature of 2004-born Serie A defender; Emerson Royal's replacement?

According to Italian outlet Viola News, Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on talented Fiorentina right-back Michael Kayode this summer but face competition for his signature in the form of Aston Villa.

We had mentioned recently that Tottenham and AC Milan are in negotiations over a transfer for Brazilian right-back Emerson Royal with the player already giving the green light to move to Italy. However, the two parties are yet to agree on the terms.

If the ex-Barcelona man was to leave for the Rossoneri, that would leave a gaping hole in defence with Pedro Porro being the only recognized right-back at the club. Yes, we have just signed Archie Gray but Postecoglou might be viewing the teenager as a midfielder.
