Agent rules out Tottenham selling his client, despite transfer rumours
Radu Dragusin’s agent makes a big admission about the centre-back’s current situation at Tottenham and his plans for the future.
Radu Dragusin is yet to make his mark at Spurs
Since his move from Genoa back in January of this year, Tottenham fans have only seen a few glimpses of Radu Dragusin on the pitch.
The centre-back has not been able to get a run in the starting eleven, with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven ahead of him in the pecking order.
That is why the Romanian has to grab the opportunities that come his way and he failed to do that against Qarabag last month, being sent off in the early stages of the game after a poor error.
Dragusin’s agent speaks on his future
There have been suggestions in the Italian press over recent months that the 22-year-old could return to the Serie A on the back of his struggles at Spurs (InterLive).
However, this suggestion has been dismissed by the defender’s agent, Florina Manea, who insisted that his client is focused on doing well for Tottenham.
When asked if rumours of Napoli contacting him over Dragusin are true, Manea told Sport pe Surse “No, no. It is normal for Napoli to have him on the list. He is a footballer who played well in Italy. I don’t think that Tottenham will part with Radu, even in the current situation, where he is not a starter.
“Apart from Romero and Van de Ven, they have no one [at centre-half]. I think that Radu will get more chances this year. And, if he plays 20 to 25 matches this season, I’m satisfied.
“We even talked after that moment in the Europa League when he saw red. He told me: ‘I’m learning, I’m putting it behind me and we’re moving forward’.
“I think that, at this big level, the mentality is the most important. You have to fight and overcome the moments. In football, you live from one week to the next.”
Dragusin will get his opportunities
Ange Postecoglou will be aware that he has to manage the minutes of both Romero and Van de Ven if he is to keep them fit for the majority of the season.
There is no doubt that Dragusin will get plenty of opportunities over the coming months as the calendar becomes more crowded, with the Europa League, Carabao Cup and the Premier League now in full pace.
