On Wednesday, Gianluca Di Marzio reported Tottenham Hotspur have made a verbale offer of around €22-23m for Radu Drăgușin. It was also stated Napoli have offered €20m plus Leo Østigård to sign the Genoa star.
Sky Italia have relayed this and then add the Serie A winners are in a battle with Spurs to secure the defender’s services.
Tottenham have an advantage over the Naples club because Drăgușin is ‘fascinated’ with the idea of making a switch to the Premier League.
Genoa are keen on signing Napoli’s Alessandro Zanoli and Il Mattino state there was a call between the parties yesterday morning, to define the final details of the loan deal.
Drăgușin is unlikely to be part of this operation. Il Mattino say Genoa tried to include the Romania international but failed because he ‘prefers the Premier League and Tottenham’.
Italian journalist Paolo Bargiggia has told TV Play what Ange Postecoglou’s side have to do to bring the 21-year-old to the north London club quickly.
“If Tottenham are convinced and raise their offer, they can take him immediately for €25/30m. Otherwise Genoa will keep him until the end of the season and perhaps complete the operation in the summer,” he said.
