Tottenham and Liverpool vie for Juventus defender Gleison Bremer.
With Roberto De Zerbi now managing Tottenham Hotspur, the club faces a critical period, as relegation remains a serious concern. The 46-year-old has taken over a team that has not secured a league victory since 2026, placing them just one point above the relegation zone. De Zerbi’s first game in charge will be against Sunderland on April 12.
Significantly, De Zerbi has signed a five-year contract without a relegation clause, indicating that he would lead Tottenham if they drop to the Championship. The hope is to avoid that scenario as the club works to maintain its position in the top tier. Meanwhile, Tottenham’s management is eager to support De Zerbi in the transfer market swiftly.
Interest in Gleison Bremer heats up between Tottenham and Liverpool.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, Liverpool is now in a strong position to sign Juventus defender Gleison Bremer, having edged out Tottenham in this transfer race.
Since joining from Torino in 2022, Bremer has been a key player for Juventus, making 115 appearances and contributing 11 goals along with five assists. Despite facing injuries this season, he has still managed to make an impact with three goals and three assists in 19 Serie A matches.
Juventus fans are increasingly worried that Bremer might leave at the end of the season. Coach Luciano Spalletti considers him essential, but the club’s management might struggle to reject a significant offer this summer. Bremer’s contract runs until 2029 and includes a €54 million buyout clause.
Liverpool’s interest makes sense as they face potential changes at the back. Ibrahima Konate has only a few months left on his contract, and there are concerns about losing him for free. Virgil van Dijk, turning 35 in July, has shown signs of decline, and Joe Gomez’s future is uncertain. This scenario raises the stakes for Liverpool’s defense.
Bremer could be an excellent fit for Liverpool, combining technical skills, physicality, and valuable experience. Tottenham would also benefit from his leadership, especially amid uncertainty regarding Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven’s futures.
However, if Tottenham cannot guarantee a spot in the Premier League for next season, their chances of signing Bremer diminish. Currently, Liverpool appears to be in the best position to secure the Juventus defender.
