Radu Dragusin: Tottenham beat Bayern Munich to signing of Genoa defender
Radu Dragusin has decided to join Tottenham over Bayern Munich.
Spurs had reached an agreement with Genoa worth £25.9m (€30m), including £5.6m (€6m) in add-ons, before Bayern launched a late bid in an attempt to hijack the deal.
Bayern's improved offer worth £26.7m (€31m) left Dragusin to decide which club he wants to play for, and he's chosen Tottenham.
The Romania international will fly to London where a medical has been scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.
Bayern's failed move for Dragusin came after Sky in Germany reported at the weekend that the German giants had agreed terms with Tottenham defender Eric Dier, who is now their No 1 target.
The 29-year-old is free to speak to foreign clubs with his contract expiring this summer but Spurs have not had an approach from Bayern yet to discuss a deal being done this month.
The winter transfer window is now open and will close at 11pm in England and midnight in Scotland on Thursday 1 February, 2024.
To ensure harmonisation with the major leagues in Europe, the closing dates were set following discussions with the EFL, DFL, Serie A, LaLiga, and LFP, who will all close their summer and winter windows on 1 September and 1 February respectively.
