Earlier on Thursday, we covered some quotes from Radu Dragusin’s agent, who openly discussed his client’s situation and Tottenham’s interest.
Spurs have made it very clear through Ange Postecoglou that they want to sign a centre-back in January, and the Romania international appears to be on their wishlist.
Whether Tottenham get him or not depends on the offer they make Genoa in the next transfer window, since the Serie A side are unwilling to part ways with him, but Gazzetta dello Sport hint the London club are well placed.
In fact, they are in ‘pole position’ to get him, which is a problem for another interested party: Atalanta.
The defender is allegedly ‘perfect’ for what the Serie A side are looking for, but it’s labelled as a ‘very difficult deal’ to pull off.
Firstly, that’s because Genoa are asking for €25-30m to let him go in the coming weeks, and secondly he is ‘very popular’ in the Premier League, where Tottenham are at the front of the queue.
This suggests Spurs are ready to make their move and give Dragusin’s club some food for thought before the end of next month, and it could entirely depend on how much money they are ready to part ways with.
