The agent of Radu Dragusin has sensationally warned Tottenham Hotspur that he “won’t stay” for a long time if he is “just on the bench”.
The former Genoa centre-back signed for Spurs during this year’s January transfer window.
Tottenham were the saviours of the winter transfer window as most other Premier League clubs were unwilling to do business as they were at risk of breaching Financial Fair Play rules.
Spurs meanwhile signed ex-Chelsea forward Timo Werner on loan from RB Leipzig and splashed out around £26m to sign Dragusin from Serie A outfit Genoa.

Tottenham fended off competition from Bayern Munich and Napoli to sign Dragusin, who has barely featured in the Premier League in recent months.
The 22-year-old has only made two starts in the Premier League and has been an unused substitute for five straight games.
Dragusin’s agent – Florin Manea – caused a stir in January by keeping football fans in the loop about how the transfer saga involving the defender was developing and he opted against biting his tongue during a fresh interview.
Manea has admitted that he wanted him to sign for Serie A giants Napoli and he has been critical of head coach Ange Postecoglou.
“It would’ve been better for him [to sign for Napoli], especially for the sunshine, but it was his choice,” Manea told Radio CRC.
