Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly closing in on the signing of Slavia Prague goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky.
Kinsky is set to undergo a medical at Tottenham after the Premier League fixture against Newcastle United, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Spurs are currently in the midst of a personnel crisis in goal, with Guglielmo Vicario injured and Fraser Forster missing out against Newcastle through illness.
However, reinforcements should be on the way, according to Romano’s tweet, with Kinsky potentially signing in the coming days.
Slavia Prague fans have now told their Tottenham counterparts what they can expect from the 21-year-old.

Slavia Prague fans sing Antonin Kinsky’s praises to Tottenham fans
Talking THFC’s X account replied to Romano’s tweet by asking Slavia fans whether Kinsky is any good, and the replies are certainly positive.
One fan wrote: “Young, highly rated, huge potential, future #1 GK for Czechia, £15m, bargain.”
Another said: “Guys, you just bought the best youngster in the post in Europe. Be nice to him, he is (crown emoji).”
A supporters of both teams said: “He is awesome, properly fit in our system, great with feet, superb goalkeeping and match managing. From a lifelong Slavia and Spurs fan.”
Two fans called him “incredible”, one deemed him “insane”, another said he is the “best young GK in Europe” and another called him the “best young GK in the world.”
Finally, a neutral follower of Czech football said: “I ain’t a Slavia fan, but he’s indeed a very solid keeper.”
What else Tottenham fans can expect from Kinsky
Several months ago, another Czech football follower said Kinsky is Czechia’s biggest goalkeeping talent since Petr Cech.
As per DataMB, Kinsky is among the best goalkeepers in the Czech top flight, leading the way in clean sheets and passes.
The 21-year-old also ranks second in terms of his save percentage, short passes and accurate short passes.
At just 21 years of age, Kinsky has already clocked up 102 competitive senior appearances between Slavia, MFK Vyskov, FK Pardubice and Dulka Prague.
He has conceded less than a goal a game (95 from 102 outings) and has kept 35 clean sheets at senior level.
Needless to say, Kinsky is already a top talent and he has all the tools necessary to become a world-class goalkeeper at the highest levels of the game.
