The agent of Genoa star Radu Dragusin has admitted that he’s been in England speaking to clubs about a potential move for his client.
Florin Manea knows full well that Dragusin is attracting interest. The defender is admired by Tottenham while Newcastle United have also made their interest in him known as well.
However, speaking to Fanatik, it appears that Manea has also dropped in that Arsenal are in the mix as well.
Radu Dragusin’s agent speaks of Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle talks
£26m-rated Dragusin’s agent has admitted to Fanatik that he has held talks with a number of Premier League clubs already.
“I have been in London for some time and have almost weekly meetings with important teams. We are getting closer and closer. I spoke to Newcastle, to Arsenal, to Tottenham. I also have messages with them, conversations. There are teams that ask,” his agent said.
“I want to say that 100% until next summer, Radu will play for a club not strong, very strong! In the top 10 in the world. He wants to be in the Premier League, but know that Milan likes him very much. I talked to the people there.
A January battle could be on the cards
It’s obvious from this that there are teams looking at Dragusin closely and this is as good as confirmation of that interest.
This is obviously a way for the agent to push his client a bit more and he’ll be hoping that a bidding war ensues for the defender. For Genoa, that is ideal as it likely means a bigger transfer fee.
While for the player and the agent, it means a bigger payday as well in terms of any wage or signing on fee.
Dragusin is obviously ready to make the next step in his career and has already been compared to Liverpool superstar, Virgil van Dijk.
January, then, could see us watch a battle unfold between some of the Premier League’s big boys.
