Genoa centre-back Radu Dragusin is strongly linked with a move to Tottenham, but the latest comments from his agent will leave Spurs fans worried.
There have been a lot of developments in the last few days regarding the transfer.
While Dragusin has reportedly agreed personal terms with Spurs, talks with Genoa are ongoing and the two clubs are yet to come to an agreement.
Spurs initiated discussions with an initial verbal bid of €23 million, falling short of Genoa’s demand of €30 million.
And Sky Sports’ journalist Rudy Galetti claimed earlier today that Spurs are preparing another offer which would be closer to their valuation.
However, the latest comments from the defender’s agent Florin Manea are not very encouraging. Speaking to TV Play, he admitted that the play may need some convincing to leave Genoa mid-season.
He said (via Last Word On Spurs):
“I have had contact with clubs in the Premier League, including Tottenham and others, but at this moment he does not want to leave.”
TBH Says:
We are not sure what to make of these comments. His agent’s comments are contradictory to what the likes of Romano and Galetti have been reporting.
There’s a chance the agent aims to craft a positive narrative, insinuating that while the player intended to stay, the club opted to offload him, preserving a favourable image among the supporters.
