Tottenham Hotspur are addressing their goalkeeping concerns following the injury to Guglielmo Vicario, whose return remains uncertain. Veteran Fraser Forster’s underwhelming performances have prompted the club to target Alex Remiro for added depth in the position. Currently sitting 11th in the Premier League, Tottenham’s struggles can be attributed in part to their extensive injury list, with nine players side lined.
The Times reports that Tottenham Hotspur have been monitoring Real Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro in recent weeks and are aiming to secure his signature next month. Whether the La Liga side will agree to his departure in the upcoming transfer window remains to be seen.
Remiro has demonstrated his talent in La Liga and possesses the skills needed to thrive in English football. Spurs are actively seeking a dependable backup for the injured Guglielmo Vicario.
Tottenham’s goalkeeping struggles seem evident
The Lilywhites have an exciting project and a talented squad, making them an appealing destination for the Spaniard. Real Sociedad’s willingness to accept a reasonable transfer fee will be the real deal in determining if the deal progresses. While Spurs aim to address other areas of their squad, paying a premium for Remiro might not be feasible.
The Spanish goalkeeper has spent his entire career in Spain and might now seek a fresh challenge abroad, especially with the potential for a substantial wage increase in the Premier League. A legend at Real Sociedad, Remiro has made an impressive 244 appearances and kept 107 clean sheets, an outstanding record that highlights his quality.
At 29, Remiro is in his prime and would aim to establish himself as a key figure at Tottenham if the move materialises. Guglielmo Vicario has faced criticism for struggling with set pieces, and the Spanish goalkeeper could see this as an opportunity to challenge for the starting spot, even once Vicario regains fitness. Healthy competition between the two could elevate their performances.

With Fraser Forster’s contract set to expire in the summer, Remiro emerges as an ideal addition. The honour of Premier League football could also sway the goalkeeper’s decision. It remains to be seen if Tottenham will table an offer to secure his services.
