Romania defender Radu Dragusin has joined Tottenham Hotspur from Genoa until 2030 for £25, the club announced on Thursday.
“We are delighted to announce the signing of Radu Dragusin from Serie A side Genoa, subject to international clearance and a work permit,” the club said in a statement.
Dragusin, 21, has appeared in every league game for Genoa since joining them on loan from Juventus in 2022. His move was made permanent in 2023 after Genoa earned a promotion to the Serie A.
Spurs have already completed a loan move for the RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner as they answer Postecoglou’s call for early January business. They are also interested in the Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher, although he may prove too expensive.
Postecoglou could move on Bryan Gil, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Sergio Reguilón, who has returned from a loan at Manchester United.
Spurs defender Djed Spence, who recently returned from a four-month spell at Leeds United, joined Genoa on loan for the rest of the season.
Genoa added that they will have the option to buy Spence, 23, at the end of the season. ($1 = 0.7842 pounds).
