The club announced their seventh signing of the summer transfer window, signing 19-year-old left wing back Destiny Udogie from Udinese.
Udogie was signed for a transfer fee of reportedly €20m plus escalators, and as part of the agreement was immediately loaned back to Udinese for the duration of the 2022-23 season.
Udogie has agreed on a five-year permanent deal with Tottenham but will head back to Udinese on loan for the rest of the 2022-23 campaign. The defender caught Tottenham’s eye after an impressive campaign in which he made 37 appearances in all competitions and scored five times.
Spurs will pay an initial £15m and there are also some performance-related bonuses on top.
Udogie will stay on loan at Udinese for the season, with Spurs having Ryan Sessegnon and Ivan Perisic as their left wing-backs for this term.
Antonio Conte has been working this summer to strengthen his squad with new arrivals, giving him strength in depth.
Tottenham’s season got off to a flying start, with a 4-1 win against Southampton, and their second game ended in a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge.
