AS Roma Monitoring Radu Drăgușin
Romanian centre-back Radu Drăgușin is once again attracting strong interest from Serie A, with AS Roma emerging as a potential destination. According to Italian and Romanian media, the Giallorossi are closely monitoring the Tottenham defender as they look to reinforce their defensive line with a young but experienced centre-back.
Returning After a Long Injury Layoff
Drăgușin comes after almost one year of inactivity, caused by a serious injury that kept him sidelined for a prolonged period. This setback slowed down his development at Tottenham, but the Romanian international has now fully returned to training and competitive football, focusing on regaining match fitness and confidence.
Tottenham Breakthrough Before the Injury
Before suffering the injury, Radu Drăgușin had already recorded several consecutive starts for Tottenham, showing clear signs that he was on track to establish himself in the starting XI. His physical strength, aerial dominance and calmness on the ball earned him trust from the coaching staff.
Bayern Munich Interest Before Tottenham Move
When Drăgușin left Genoa, Tottenham were not the only club interested. Bayern Munich were also monitoring the Romanian defender closely, but he ultimately chose Spurs, believing the Premier League offered a clearer path to regular playing time and long-term development.
Juventus Academy Product
A lesser-known fact is that Radu Drăgușin developed in the Juventus youth academy, where he refined his tactical awareness and defensive fundamentals. His formation at Juventus helped shape him into a modern centre-back, comfortable both defensively and in build-up play.
Huge Potential for the Future
At just 23 years old, Drăgușin is widely regarded as one of the most promising Romanian defenders of his generation. If he can stay fit and secure consistent minutes, many experts believe he has the potential to become one of the best centre-backs in Europe in the coming years.
Why AS Roma Could Be the Perfect Move
A transfer to AS Roma could be exactly what Drăgușin needs at this stage of his career:
- regular playing time
- familiarity with Serie A
- a tactical system that values strong defensive organization
Roma’s project and need for defensive stability could offer the Romanian international the ideal environment to relaunch his career.
Conclusion
Radu Drăgușin’s potential move to AS Roma would represent more than just a transfer — it could mark a fresh start after a difficult year affected by injury. With experience in Serie A and the Premier League, combined with his physical and technical qualities, Drăgușin remains a player with an exceptionally high ceiling.
