Italian Serie A side Lecce have set a EUR20 million (approximately N23 billion in Nigerian currency) price tag on Danish-born Nigerian fullback Patrick Dorgu, according to Tuttosport via JuventusNews

The 19-year-old Danish U21 international has emerged as one of the hottest prospects in Italian football, attracting interest from European giants Juventus, AC Milan, Tottenham Hotspur, and Atletico Madrid.

Dorgu has impressed with his versatility this season, showcasing his talent at both left-back and on the left wing.

Despite Lecce boasting a strong presence in Antonino Gallo at left-back, Dorgu has forced his way into the starting lineup with his attacking flair and ability to contribute in the final third.

Juventus are particularly keen on the youngster, with director Cristiano Giuntoli identifying him as a potential star for the future.

However, the Bianconeri face an uphill battle to secure his signature, with several other top clubs circling.

Lecce, for their part, are determined to capitalize on the interest surrounding Dorgu.

The Serie A outfit has slapped a EUR20 million price tag on the teenager, reflecting their belief in his potential and his impressive performances this season.

Dorgu has already racked up 29 appearances for the club across all competitions, contributing two goals and an assist.

His performances have not only caught the eye of Europe's elite but have also been a key factor in Lecce's successful campaign.

With several clubs vying for his signature, Dorgu's future is set to be a major talking point in the upcoming transfer window.
