Giallorossi linked with Spurs defender

Italian giants AS Roma have been linked with a move with Tottenham Hotspur’s Croatian defender Vedran Corluka. Corluka has been largely restricted to warming the benches at White Hart Lane this season after the meteoric rise of young England full back Kyle Walker, who has firmly established himself as Spurs’ no.1 on the right side of defence, and Roma are said to be open to taking him on loan.

Corluka’s last Premier League start was in the 5-1 loss to Manchester City in August. Harry Redknapp is said to want him to stay in order to preserve his side’s depth but Corluka wants first team football, with one eye on Croatia’s upcoming Euro 2012 campaign in Poland and Ukraine.
