Radu Dragusin’s return to Serie A is becoming an increasingly concrete possibility as the January transfer window approaches. According to a report from Tuttomercatoweb, Roma have emerged as a serious suitors for the Tottenham defender, looking to bolster a backline that has lacked consistency this season.
The Romanian center-back is no stranger to Italian football, but his time in London hasn’t gone strictly to plan. Dragusin’s momentum was severely hampered by a significant ACL injury that sidelined him for a lengthy period, forcing him into a difficult recovery process to regain his peak physical condition. While he is now fit, he remained an unused substitute during Tottenham’s recent clash against Liverpool, highlighting his current standing in the pecking order.
Roma isn’t the only Italian club to have tracked the former Genoa man. Napoli has shown strong interest in the past, viewing him as an ideal fit for their defensive system before he eventually made the move to the Premier League.
The success of any potential deal now rests entirely on Tottenham’s stance. While the player may be open to a return to Italy for more consistent playing time, Spurs must decide whether they are willing to sanction a loan or permanent exit, or if they prefer to keep him as cover for the second half of the season.
