Tottenham are looking to strengthen their defense in the January transfer window after a series of injuries.

Genoa's Radu Dragusin is being targeted by Spurs as a potential solution to their defensive issues.

The 21yearold Romanian defender has attracted interest from other Serie A clubs, but Spurs have reportedly made a verbal offer for him.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou is eager to bolster his team's defense following a string of injuries that have left them struggling in the Premier League. One player on their radar is Genoa's Radu Dragusin, who could potentially provide the answer to their defensive woes.

Since losing Micky van de Ven to injury during a match against Chelsea, Spurs have been lacking stability at the back. With just one clean sheet in nine Premier League games and key defenders like Cristian Romero and Eric Dier dealing with injuries or potential departures, reinforcements are needed.

According to reports, Tottenham have made an initial offer of around £21 million for Dragusin, although this falls short of Genoa's asking price. The 21yearold defender joined Genoa from Juventus for just under £5 million in January 2023 and has since become a regular starter for the club.

Dragusin has also caught the eye of other Serie A teams such as Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Napoli due to his impressive performances. However,

Spurs seem determined to secure his services as they look

to address their defensive frailties before it’s too late.

With senior centerback Romero currently sidelined with hamstring trouble,

the addition of Dragusin could prove crucial

for Tottenham’s ambitions this season.
