Tottenham to now miss out on Postecoglou’s number one target
Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of defender Radu Dragusin might fall through this month, despite ongoing discussions that have persisted for several days.
Dragusin remains the primary target for Tottenham’s potential new signing in the current transfer window. Ange Postecoglou is reportedly taking personal initiative to secure Dragusin’s transfer to Tottenham, and recent reports hinted at an imminent deal.
However, there’s a potential snag in Tottenham’s pursuit, as Napoli has emerged as a contender, intensifying their efforts to outbid Tottenham for Dragusin.
Napoli’s Bid for Radu Dragusin
According to Di Marzio, Napoli has initiated a fresh bid for Dragusin, attempting to sway Genoa into favoring their offer over Tottenham’s.
Reports suggest that Napoli is ready to incorporate players into their proposal to acquire Dragusin, a move that seems to intrigue Genoa at this stage.
Genoa is reportedly seeking a deal amounting to approximately £31 million, a figure surpassing Tottenham’s offered sum, which has stalled negotiations.
Genoa’s decision seems contingent on whether Napoli includes defender Alessandro Zanoli in their bid. Should Napoli fulfill this condition, it could pave the way for an agreement between the Italian clubs.
The Pressure on Tottenham
The stakes are high for Tottenham. Failing to secure Dragusin after considerable anticipation would be a significant setback for the club, especially given the discussions surrounding the potential deal.
Postecoglou has emphasized the need for a new defender, identifying Dragusin as a player capable of immediate contributions to the team. Losing out to Napoli would not only disappoint but also unsettle Spurs fans throughout the remaining transfer window.
Daniel Levy and the team management face mounting pressure to expedite negotiations. They must act swiftly to finalize deals and support the manager’s vision; otherwise, there’s a risk of squandering a substantial opportunity this season.
Dragusin’s willingness to join Tottenham is evident. It’s imperative for the North London club to act promptly and navigate through the details to secure this potential transfer.
