Newcastle United have reportedly submitted a written offer worth £26.5 million for 21-year-old defensive target Radu Dragusin.
According to Fichajes, Newcastle United are ready to steal the march in the Radu Dragusin chase after submitting a written offer. The Magpies have made their intention to pay £26.5 million to Genoa, but the Italian side’s failure to respond could spark a transfer battle.
Radu Dragusin featured in many media reports linking him with an imminent move to the Premier League. The 21-year-old defender has sparkled at Genoa since signing for the club 18 months ago, with a host of clubs already chasing his signature.
Despite only recently signing a new contract with the Italian side, there’s reportedly a gentleman’s agreement to leave if any club comes up with an offer of £26 million or more. Newcastle United have reportedly made a written offer worth £26.5 million in an attempt to wrap up the signing, but there are some complications anticipated ahead.
Genoa have not yet responded to the bid, which could spark a transfer battle for the 21-year-old defensive target. Tottenham are ready to rival Newcastle United for the defender. Meanwhile, a host of other clubs are also keeping constant tabs.
The reason for Dragusin to feature so prominently in reports was due to his agent’s comments about holding meetings with many Premier League clubs. He also spoke about Arsenal being in the chase, which could spark a serious battle for the Genoa star.
The 21-year-old has impressed many, as Newcastle United had hoped to make a quickfire offer matching Genoa’s request and get the signing done. Eddie Howe seeks a new centre-back as there’s a visible lack of depth in the position at the moment.
Newcastle United have struggled on several fronts and may not have progressed too much with limited options. Their persistence in Dragusin tells a story about who they are prioritising ahead of the January window.
Newcastle will hope to receive an answer from Genoa as soon as possible if the reports of their bid are accurate. Dragusin would undoubtedly improve their backline. He would also bring cover and competition for players like Fabian Schar and Jamal Lascelles going forward.
Whether Newcastle succeeds in the chase remains the question, as several other sides are waiting in the wings. For that price, the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham will certainly show an interest in Dragusin, which would make the chase all the more intense.
