Juventus sign Vicario on loan from Tottenham after ruling out Martinez move
Juventus have secured the services of Guglielmo Vicario on a loan deal from Tottenham Hotspur, bringing the Italian goalkeeper back to Serie A. The Old Lady had explored a move for Argentina international Emiliano Martinez but opted against pursuing the Aston Villa keeper.

The loan arrangement allows Juventus to reinforce their goalkeeping ranks without committing to a permanent transfer fee.
