Mile Svilar, Roma’s 26-year-old goalkeeper, has drawn interest from Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham amid a reported €70m valuation. Bettors may see odds shorten on United signing a first-choice keeper if Onana/Bayindir depart, while Spurs’ clean-sheet markets could tighten if Svilar arrives to challenge Guglielmo Vicario.
Mile Svilar sparks €70m transfer chase among Premier League heavyweights
Mile Svilar has emerged as one of Europe’s most talked-about goalkeepers after a string of impressive displays for Roma. The 26-year-old’s form has put him squarely on the radar of Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham, with Roma reportedly valuing their shot-stopper at around €70 million.
Managerial praise and growing reputation
Gian Piero Gasperini lauded Svilar’s impact, saying: “He’s a top player, he brings a lot of points to his team. You could compare him to a 25-goal striker.” That level of endorsement has amplified interest across the Premier League, where clubs are constantly hunting for reliable, game-changing keepers.
Why Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham are sniffing around
Chelsea have shown frustration with current options and are looking for defensive stability; Svilar’s presence could plug glaring weaknesses. Manchester United face potential departures in goal — with Altay Bayindir and Andre Onana possibly moving on — and need a dependable replacement. Tottenham see value in adding competition, particularly given concerns over Guglielmo Vicario’s inconsistency and vulnerability on aerial set pieces.
Impact on squad dynamics and competition for places
A move for Svilar would reshape goalkeeping hierarchies. At Tottenham, increased competition could force performance improvements or a defensive reshuffle. Chelsea would gain a fresh, authoritative presence between the sticks, while Manchester United could shore up a long-term issue by bringing in a proven Serie A performer.
Transfer feasibility: €70m a potential dealbreaker
The reported €70m valuation is steep and could deter suitors balancing budgets and multiple squad needs. Clubs weighing the price will consider short-term impact versus long-term planning; unless Roma adjust demands, negotiations may stall or prompt alternative targets to emerge.
What to watch next
Expect monitoring of Roma’s stance and Premier League clubs’ goalkeeper markets — especially any confirmation of Onana or Bayindir departures. Any concrete bids or public movement will quickly reshape transfer odds and betting markets, while scouts will continue to assess Svilar’s consistency at the highest level.
