"Roma are still keen to tie Pellegrini down to a new contract, according to Calciomercato, but it looks like he could be heading towards an exit from the Stadio Olimpico. The 29-year-old is set to become a free agent this summer if he doesn't agree a new deal, so it's a big opportunity for Spurs and others. Tudor only recently took over from Thomas Frank, but he's only there until the end of the season until a permanent appointment comes in."
"Perhaps if the Croatian tactician can impress in the weeks and months ahead then he'll have a stab at landing the job beyond this campaign, in which case it could be smart to give him someone like Pellegrini to work with. Still, there are a lot of moving parts here that could make this deal complicated, so it's a bit early to know for sure how the whole saga is going to pan out."
Igor Tudor, Tottenham's interim manager, has urged the club to pursue Roma midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini. Pellegrini's future at Roma is uncertain and he may seek a new challenge abroad after an entire career in Italy. Roma remain keen to offer a new contract, but the 29-year-old could become a free agent this summer if no deal is reached. Tudor only recently took over and remains interim until the end of the season, so his long-term influence is unclear. If Tudor secures the permanent job, signing Pellegrini could strengthen Tottenham, though the move faces multiple complications.
