Lots of Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to Twitter to voice their thoughts at a transfer claim to emerge over the weekend. 

According to journalist Paolo Paganini on Kiss Kiss Napoli (via Area Napoli), Spurs have put forward an offer to Napoli for attacker Lorenzo Insigne.

Would you like to see Spurs sign Insigne?

Yes

Yes

No

No

The Italian forward impressed during this summer’s European Championship which saw the 5ft 3in forward find the back of the net twice as the Azzurri got their hands on the trophy (via Transfermarkt).

Spurs fans flocked to the tweet from Hotspur Related relaying the claims to come out of Italy to share their hopes of this rumour coming to fruition.

What exactly did these Spurs fans have to say?

“God I’m begging you for this to go through”

“That would be the perfect replacement for Eriksen and even be the player we thought Bergwijn would be”

Insigne is now in the final 12 months of his contract with Napoli and at the age of 30, this could be the last chance for the Serie A side to cash in for the forward following his impressive Euros display.

The reaction of these Spurs fans makes it pretty clear this is a deal they would like to see happen, however, there are also a lot of cautious fans feeling it may be a stretch.
