Bayern Munich’s £26M Defender Pursuit Threatens Two Key Tottenham Transfers

Share

Tottenham’s plans to offload Eric Dier and secure the acquisition of Genoa center-back Radu Dragusin face uncertainty due to Bayern Munich’s recent interest in Dragusin.

Tottenham aims to sell veteran defender Eric Dier to Bayern Munich this month, as manager Ange Postecoglou seeks alternatives for the English international.

The desired replacement is Romania’s promising 21-year-old defender, Radu Dragusin, known for his talent in Serie A.

Genoa has set a fee of €25 million (£21.5m) upfront, with an additional €5 million (£4.3m) in add-ons for Dragusin.

While Dragusin’s arrival is not contingent on Dier’s departure, Bayern’s interest in the young defender could complicate Dier’s move.

If Bayern pursues Dragusin, it may impact both transfers, leaving Spurs in a delicate situation with potential consequences for Postecoglou’s plans.

Tottenham appears close to finalizing a deal with Genoa, including Djed Spence joining on loan, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

Eric Dier has reportedly agreed on personal terms with Bayern Munich, awaiting confirmation for a potential reunion with former teammate Harry Kane.

Despite interest in Jean-Clair Todibo, Nice is determined to retain the 24-year-old defender until summer. Spurs, facing a center-back shortage due to injuries to Cristian Romero and Ben Davies, are navigating the transfer market.

Dier, involved in just four Premier League games this season, was excluded from the recent FA Cup win against Burnley, leading to a heated exchange between manager Ange Postecoglou and a reporter regarding Dier’s injury status.

Postecoglou emphasized the injury’s legitimacy and distanced it from other transfer-related matters.
