Radu Dragusin formally signed with Tottenham on Thursday night. Genoa signed Djed Spence on loan with a €10 million option to buy, in addition to a €25 million cost and add-ons. His representative, Florin Manea, revealed the truth to Tuttomercatoweb.
“We’ve been talking to the Spurs for two months. Bayern Munich approached him on the day of his departure, and it was natural to consider them, but he maintained his word.”
Dragusin was pursued by two Italian clubs, but Tottenham outbid them both.
“Napoli moved the most concretely. He did not want to join another Serie A squad or leave Genoa in the middle of the season. He cared more about their fans than about his profession. Milan also enquired. I spoke with director Geoffrey Moncada, but informed him that we had already made our decision. We’re pleased with it. Radu is consistently loyal.”
Dragusin, the agent, pushed for the transfer to Tottenham.
“He wants to play every game.” He’s always wanted to play in the Premier League. I anticipated that he would achieve it when he was 16. They nickname me the “Romanian Nostradamus.”
The arrival of the former Genoa teenager permitted Eric Dier’s departure, as he joined Bayern Munich for €4 million. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Englishman was originally considered a Roma target because his contract with Spurs was just for a few months.
According to Goal’s Romeo Agresti, Juventus will profit from Dragusin’s move to Tottenham by approximately €4 million. They had received €5.5 million, plus €1.8 million in bonuses, following his sale to Genoa.
