As Tottenham Hotspur if they continue to consider signings of their own in the January transfer window, they could be in danger of losing one of the Ange Postecogloudefender this month.
Tottenham transfer news
The Lilywhites have once again endured a campaign full of inconsistencies and remain one of the most difficult sides to predict in the Premier Leaguewhich probably extends to their work away from the action. As for the transfer, it looked like they did they were approaching the arrival of Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain only for Juventus to allegedly swoop in since then.
Whether those in north London will look to bolster their attacking options through other suitors after missing out on the Frenchman remains to be seen. Moreover, before any arrivals arrive, they may have to worry about possible departures.

According to reports in Spain, PSG are now preparing a €50m (£42m) bid to sign Radu Dragusin from Tottenham and sees the central defender as a priority target. The Lilywhites, however, are reluctant to sell their centre-back, who has become a regular starter due to their defensive injury crisis.
It’s no surprise that Spurs will also remain firm amid such interest. Sometimes this season, Dragusin he was the only recognized centre-back for Postecoglou who turned after injuries to Micky van de Ven and Cristiano Romero.
Losing Dragušin at this stage would be an undisputed disaster for those in north London, even if PSG’s planned offer is tempting on the economic side of things during the January transfer window.
“Great” Dragušin is key for Tottenham
When Van de Ven and Romero return, Dragusin’s role could be that of a rotational central defender. However, as things stand, he is the most important member of Postecoglou’s background. Meanwhile, even as a rotational player, the 22-year-old remains a solid option to add crucial depth to Australia’s strongest squad in north London.
The former manager of Celtic was full of praise for Dragusin when he spoke to reporters last week, saying as reported by Spurs Web: “I’ve been saying all along that some of our players have been judged unfairly because of the situation we’re in.
“He’s only 22 and it would be fine if he plays with older players around him, but he’s playing with an 18-year-old who’s not a centre-back and he’s had three different goalkeepers.
“He was great the other night, really focused and with his organization. With Toni, it’s probably the most organized we’ve been in a while, and the midfield protected them well.”
With a bit of a comeback to qualify for European football in the second half of the campaign, Dragusin should more than play his part for Tottenham as the games come thick and fast on all fronts.
