Report: Two 21-year-old centre-backs now top Tottenham’s January wishlist
Football Transfers have revealed Genoa centre-back Radu Dragusin and Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite are at the top of Tottenham’s wishlist for January.
Over the last few months, it has been widely reported that Spurs are prioritising signing a centre-back in January, with a whole host of names mooted as targets for the North London club (GiveMeSport).
Among those is Dragusin, with the Genoa star’s agent, Florin Manea even admitted last month that he has met with multiple English clubs over the prospect of a transfer, including Tottenham (Fanatik).
Over the past two weeks, various outlets have backed Spurs to make a move for Branthwaite but it has been suggested that Everton have no intention of parting ways with the youngster (Sky Sports).
Tottenham target Branthwaite and Dragusin
Football Transfers have now named the Genoa and Everton starlets as the two players that Ange Postecoglou’s men are eyeing next month.
The report says that Dragusin has impressed Tottenham’s scouts this season, with the Lilywhites said to hold a ‘genuine’ interest in the Romanian.
The publication adds that Branthwaite is also ‘greatly admired’ by Spurs, who have been impressed with the 21-year-old’s performances at Goodison Park.
However, it is alleged that the Toffees value the player at around £75m as they firmly believe that he is a future England player.
Spurs Web Opinion
It is pretty clear that Everton are not going to part ways with Branthwaite unless they receive a crazy offer but Dragusin would be a realistic target for Spurs. We have seemingly tracked the Genoa star for a couple of years as Paratici was the man who initially took him to Juventus.
