Tottenham Hotspur has successfully secured the services of 21-year-old center-back Radu Dragusin from Serie A side Genoa in a deal worth approximately £21.5 million, with potential add-ons. The Romanian defender’s contract with Spurs will run until 2030, signaling a long-term commitment from both parties.

This move follows Tottenham’s recent loan signing of Timo Werner from RB Leipzig, showcasing the club’s proactive approach in bolstering its squad during the transfer window. Dragusin, highly sought after in the market, had been linked with a potential move to Bayern Munich. However, he made a surprising choice to join Tottenham, reportedly favoring career progression over a more lucrative offer from the German powerhouse.

The decision was made after careful consideration with Dragusin and his family, according to his agent, Florin Manea. As part of the deal, Tottenham’s Djed Spence will join Genoa on loan for the remainder of the season. The addition of Dragusin enhances Tottenham’s defensive options and adds depth to their squad as they compete on multiple fronts.
