Saturday’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport wasn’t very positive on Tottenham Hotspur’s swoop for Radu Dragusin.



It was explained that Spurs didn’t want to overspend on the 21-year-old because he would be seen as a squad player rather than a nailed-on starter for Ange Postecoglou’s side.

With Genoa trying to edge the transfer fee closer to €30m, and attempts even made to go above that, Gazzetta said Tottenham wouldn’t do anything ‘crazy’ and their offer was ‘unlikely to exceed €18-20m’.

Sunday’s edition of the same newspaper reports the Premier League club are ‘ready to offer’ €20m, but will need to raise that because Genoa want more.

Over at Corriere dello Sport they have things differently.


In their Sunday edition, it’s claimed ‘Tottenham present the offer’, and the amount is put at €26.6m.

Corriere dello Sport go further and say ‘The indecent offer has arrived’ from Spurs, who are ‘taking things seriously’. They put that at £23m/€26.6m.

Interestingly, the report states the offer has arrived through ‘lateral channels’, so intermediaries, and is ‘waiting to officially proceed’.

Napoli remain in the picture, but it’s thought that Tottenham simply have more financial power and if they push through and use that then the competition is over.

Levy a ghost writer for them?
 
Unlike most of you who are Ange evangelists I prefer to stay grounded as we haven't won fuck all. However that said once we win the Double I fully expect Mbappe to join us.

I’ll take your Gill and Raise you a Porto and Udogie - Arguably the best Full back pairing in the league!
Not every signing is going to be a hit , but at least just lately we seem to be getting more Sarrs and Rodrigo’s than Ndombeles!
I’m sure people will come back and say “Brennan for £50 million” but he will come good

Gil, Udogie and Sarr. Are you really comparing those signings. Did you do any homework on them when we bought them? You could clear see they were future Ballers. When we bought Gil we were in urgent need of a No 10, Backup 9, a whole new defence and we decided to buy Gil. Some of you just make me 🤔
 
I’ve watched the last couple of Genoa games. Dragusin seems like an aggressive, strong and fairly mobile CB, and his passing range seems decent. Doesn’t appear super comfortable on the ball under pressure though.

Ivan Tony isn't a top Tier striker he's on a good career trajectory and a decent/good player.

He had 13 non penalty goals last season.
And 7non penalty goals the season before.
Before that he was in the football league.

He isn't the 20+ goal striker that every media outlet suggests he is.

I didn't say he was. He would be a good fit for what we need. At the moment, when teams sit back and defend we find it very difficult to break them down. Even if a cross is put in from the wing, there's only Richie to aim for. Richie is about the only player that can header the ball. Toney can do that. He is also a bit more Robust than any of our STRs. It would give us a bit of variation but allow us to be able to play our game as well. Can Timo Werner do That? Just asking for a friend.

Remember though who was feeding him. I bet he would have a better track record with the likes of Maddison doing so.
