Spurs sporting director Damien Comolli welcomed
the acquisition of Ranieri, who has represented his country at Under-16
level, on Tottenham's official website.

“His distribution and decision-making is improving all the time.
“He is a highly-intelligent individual and another very good young goalkeeper we have attracted to the club.”

looks almost certain to be over, with Middlesbrough and Aston Villa
believed to leading the race for his signature.
