Tottenham are close to agreeing a £25m deal to sign Radu Dragusin from Genoa
Tottenham are close to agreeing a deal worth up to £25million for Genoa defender Radu Dragusin after tabling a formal offer.
Out of favour defender Djed Spence, who returned from a loan spell at Leeds last week, is being offered to the Italian club as a sweetener in the proposed deal.
Dragusin has emerged as one of Spurs’ top January targets and the club have now made an official bid for the centre-back.
Bayern Munich have an interest in Dragusin and could yet look to make a late move for Romanian.
But Tottenham are growing increasingly confident of landing the 21 year old.
Spence, who was abruptly retuned by Leeds last week despite having the full-back on loan until the end of the season, could now move in the opposite direction.
He joined Tottenham for £20m in the summer of 2022 from Middlesbrough, signing a five-year deal with the club.
Following his arrival, he would go out on loan to Rennes before moving to Leeds last summer where the defender made seven appearances in the Championship after a knee injury had ruled him out of action for a large part of the season.
Mail Sport revealed on Friday that Spurs would immediately put Spence up for transfer following his return amid attitude issues.
And the former England Under 21 star is now set to leave Tottenham once more.
Meanwhile, academy graduate Matthew Craig is joining Doncaster on loan.
The 20-year-old midfielder has risen through the Spurs academy and is considered one of their brightest emerging stars.
Craig made his debut for the senior side at the end of the 2022-23 season, coming on as a late substitute during Tottenham's 4-1 Premier League victory against Leeds in May.
