Tottenham Nears Deal for Genoa's Dragusin
Spurs' Djed Spence could join Genoa on loan as part of the deal, while Eric Dier is reported to be close to a move to Bayern Munich.
- Tottenham Hotspur are close to finalizing a deal for Genoa defender Radu Dragusin for a fee of about 25m euros (£21.5m) plus add-ons.
- Djed Spence, who recently returned to Spurs after an unsuccessful loan at Leeds United, could join Genoa on loan for the rest of the season as part of the deal.
- Dragusin has started all 22 of Serie A side Genoa's matches this season and played a key role in Genoa’s promotion from Serie B during his debut season.
- Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has been in the market for a centre-back to support Cristian Romero and Mickey van de Ven, who have both suffered with injuries this season.
- Eric Dier has fallen out of favour with Postecoglou, and reports in Germany say he is close to a move to the Bundesliga champions, Bayern Munich.
