Radu Drăgușin, a central defender at Tottenham, who missed the entire season after a horrific injury to his knee’s cruciate ligaments, has received news that could bring him joy.
The 22-year-old Romanian international, a rightful starter for the national team, could potentially outshine his direct competitor, Micky van de Ven (23 years old). Liverpool seems interested in the Dutch defender, as Dutch coach Arne Slot knows him well from their time together in the Netherlands’ youth teams.
Liverpool will persist in the upcoming transfer window to secure the Dutch player, according to FootballInsider. The defender already has 130 professional matches under his belt, but this season, he has only played in 12 games due to frequent injuries.
The Reds are preparing for the potential departure of captain Van Dijk, who has yet to extend his contract with LFC. Drăgușin had a good season in Spurs' jersey, featuring in 16 Premier League matches.
Van de Ven's contract with Spurs expires in the summer of 2029, and his market value stands at 55 million euros.
Drăgușin suffered a serious injury during the Europa League match between Tottenham and Elfsborg in Sweden. He underwent surgery and will commence the recovery process shortly.
