Tottenham Hotspur have been in safe hands with Guglielmo Vicario between the woodwork’s as the Italian has been a successful successor to former club captain and legend Hugo Lloris. He has come into the back line and added calmness in the first phase of build-up play as the Lilywhites rely highly on him to dictate the start of sequences.
The Italian goalkeeper has established himself as one of the better players with the gloves in the English top tier following his move to White Hart Lane. The 27-year-old signed for Tottenham from Serie A side Empoli in a £17 million deal, which looks like a bargain in retrospect.
The player has been subject to massive advancements in the goalkeeping department at Spurs; however, Guglielmo Vicario recently faced an abundance of criticism in the past few weeks owing to his faulty presence in dead ball situations. Many teams have tried to take advantage of that, and Spurs North London rivals successfully did so last weekend.
While he was slammed in media for that, Vicario has shown a lot of resilience between the sticks and has been an integral part of Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs project.
