Spurs are reportedly interested in the PL club’s “unbelievable” £20 million centre defender, who was on Antonio Conte’s want list

Ange Postecoglou signed Radu Dragusin for Tottenham in January, but he has made it obvious that he wants more additions in the middle of the defence, and a current Premier League star might be targeted.

Indeed, the Australian manager stated in a recent news conference that, despite the additions of Dragusin and the extremely outstanding Micky van de Ven, Tottenham will continue to look for another centre defender.

Spurs will require more cover than Romanian star Dragusin, given Cristian Romero‘s history of suspensions and van de Ven‘s injury troubles this season. It also gives Postecoglou three back-up alternatives.

Spurs have come a long way, and whether they finish fourth or fifth in May, they will most likely qualify for Champions League football. That will provide an excellent bargaining tool in negotiations.

Tottenham still want to buy Bournemouth’s Ilya Zabarnyi.
During Antonio Conte’s stint as manager, Ukraine defender Ilya Zabarnyi was an unexpected – and unknown – addition to the Italian’s wishlist. Spurs never made the transfer, thus he joined Bournemouth in January 2023.

He has gone on to thrive with The Cherries, despite a rough first few months, with only five appearances in his first six months. But, since then, he’s been a regular, especially when Andoni Iraola arrived.
