Napoli have reportedly reached a preliminary agreement with Genoa concerning Tottenham’s sought-after target, Radu Dragusin.
According to Corriere dello Sport via Calcio Napoli 24, both Italian clubs have structured a provisional deal for the centre-back.
The report claims that the initial proposal from Napoli included €20m, along with Alessandro Zanoli and Leo Ostigard on a season-long loan.
However, Genoa expressed a slight alteration in their preference: they seek a permanent transfer for Zanoli and a loan arrangement for Ostigard. Napoli has accommodated this request and revised their offer accordingly.
As per the report, the two clubs have come to a draft agreement and if Spurs do not send in a better offer, they risk losing their top target.
Tottenham began negotiations with an initial verbal bid of €23m, which fell short of Genoa’s €30 million demand.
However, Galetti’s latest update suggests that Spurs are preparing a revised offer nearing €27m, which is closer to the Serie A side’s valuation.
