Radu Dragusin shares what Ange Postecoglou told him before he joined Tottenham

Tottenham were involved in a transfer saga of sorts as they pursued a move to sign Radu Dragusin this month.

The Romanian was Spurs’ top target when they made the move to sign him, and it didn’t take long for them to reach full agreement with Genoa for his signature.

However, Bayern Munich then came in with a bid of their own, and it was down to the player to decide who he wanted to join.

Dragusin picked Tottenham, and he has now revealed what Ange Postecoglou privately told him to convince him to move to North London.

He told : “Basically, he told me that he really wants me to join, he likes my way of playing and he is thinking that I’m a good fit for this team.

“This was obviously helping me, and I felt a really good connection with him as soon as he spoke to me.

“I like this kind of football, high defensive line, aggression, with a lot of space at the back to defend. I’m really excited.”

Ange Postecoglou is the difference-maker

Tottenham and Daniel Levy owe so much to Ange Postecoglou, don’t they?

The Australian took charge of Spurs when the club were in a mess. Some people even expected them to finish in the bottom half of the table this season.

Not only has Postecoglou transformed the club, is playing incredible football and keeping Spurs in touching distance of the top four, but he’s also persuading players to join his side.

reported recently that Postecoglou’s chat with Dragusin was key in convincing the defender to reject Bayern and join Tottenham.

Now, the player has admitted as much himself, which shows just how incredible a job Postecoglou is doing at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
