AC Milan might offer Fikayo Tomori in the deal to sign Radu Dragusin from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Italian outlet Calciomercato, Radu Dragusin and Fikayo Tomori could swap bases in the summer transfer window. The Tottenham Hotspur defender is the subject of interest from AC Milan, with the Rossoneri already sounding out a move for him once. Meanwhile, the Lilywhites will demand around €30 million to part ways with the Romanian international.
Radu Dragusin and his Tottenham travails
Radu Dragusin has struggled to stamp his authority since joining Tottenham Hotspur from Genoa in January 2024. The youngster was among the best young prospects in Serie A when he arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium over a year ago. However, the Romanian international has played second fiddle to Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven throughout his stint with the North London club.
While an injury crisis helped the 23-year-old find a stable footing at Tottenham, he has blown hot and cold this season. Dragusin has turned out nearly 37 times thus far for the North London club, with the majority of his appearances coming in the absence of Romero and van de Ven. On the other hand, Fikayo Tomori has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining AC Milan from Chelsea.
While the English international enjoyed phases when he was a pivotal figure for AC Milan, he has been in and out of the starting lineup this term. Meanwhile, Tomori and Dragusin face an uncertain future at their clubs heading into the summer transfer window, and we might see them swapping bases amid AC Milan’s interest in the Tottenham defender.
What next?
AC Milan’s interest in Radu Dragusin is understandable. The Serie A giants are scouring the market for a centre-back heading into a rebuilding phase in the summer transfer window. Fikayo Tomori faces an uncertain future at San Siro, while Pierre Kalulu will likely permanently leave AC Milan after the 2024/25 season ends.
So, Dragusin has emerged as a viable target for AC Milan, with the Rossoneri already sounding out a move for the highly-rated defender. However, the Serie A giants might offer Fikayo Tomori in the deal to sign Radu Dragusin from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window. Interestingly, Tomori was a target for the North London outfit this past winter before the player rejected a move.
So, it will not be surprising to see Tottenham leaping at the opportunity to land the English international in a swap deal involving Dragusin, who they value at around €30 million. In addition, while Tottenham did not want to sell the 23-year-old Romanian international in the winter window, a summer departure might be on the cards.
