Sources: Tottenham prepare 60 million move as January defensive overhaul looms

"Tottenham are ready to make a major defensive statement in the January transfer window, with Juventus centre-back Gleison Bremer emerging as one of their primary targets, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside. The North London club, led by manager Thomas Frank, have identified the Brazilian international as the ideal reinforcement to strengthen a backline that has shown signs of vulnerability this season."

"Spurs' hierarchy has made it clear that defensive reinforcements are a top priority, particularly given their inconsistent form and ongoing issues with injuries at the back. With several options under review, Bremer has risen to the top of the shortlist due to his physical dominance, aerial power, and composure on the ball, attributes that would fit perfectly into Frank's tactical setup."

"Currently under contract with Juventus until 2028, Bremer is one of the Turin club's most prized assets. The Bianconeri are under no financial pressure to sell and are expected to demand a figure well above 60 million (52 million) for their star defender. The Brazilian defender has made five appearances for the Italian club this season in all competitions. Sources close to Juventus have suggested that the club would only consider parting ways with Bremer if an irresistible offer arrives."

Tottenham have identified Juventus centre-back Gleison Bremer as a primary January target to shore up a defensively vulnerable backline. Manager Thomas Frank prioritizes a physically dominant, aerially strong and composure-on-ball defender to fit his tactical system. Spurs face injury issues and inconsistent form, making defensive reinforcement urgent. Bremer remains contracted to Juventus until 2028 and Juventus are under no financial pressure, likely to demand well above €60m. The Brazilian has made five appearances this season. Manchester United, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are also monitoring Bremer, so any move would require an irresistible offer and significant expenditure.
