Tottenham remains committed to developing Radu Dragusin despite his limited involvement since joining in January, sources reveal to Football Insider. Despite ongoing speculation linking the 22-year-old with Napoli, Spurs have no intention of offloading him.
The Romanian international’s agent has publicly expressed concerns about Ange Postecoglou’s utilization of Dragusin, hinting at a potential departure if his client doesn’t receive more playing time. However, insider sources indicate that Spurs are confident in Dragusin’s potential and are prepared to give him opportunities to prove himself next season.
Insiders suggest that fans can expect to witness Dragusin’s full potential during the 2024-25 campaign, especially with European competitions on the horizon to aid his development. Despite a slow start in England, there’s optimism within the club about Dragusin’s future contributions.
Amidst speculation about Dragusin’s future, Tottenham is poised to stick to their long-term plans for the 6ft 3in defender, avoiding any knee-jerk reactions to his limited appearances. While he has only featured seven times for Spurs, starting in just two matches, the club remains confident in his abilities.
Currently, Dragusin finds himself behind Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven in the defensive pecking order at Tottenham. However, his impressive performances at Genoa earlier in the 2023-24 season caught the attention of top European clubs, including Bayern Munich.
Tottenham’s upcoming participation in at least eight additional games next season, as they edge closer to Europa League qualification, offers Dragusin further opportunities to stake his claim in the squad.
As Spurs prepare for their final games of the season against Manchester City and Sheffield United, they remain focused on their long-term vision, which includes nurturing talent like Dragusin. Additionally, the club is reportedly working on new signings while preparing for the departure of three existing players.
