Report: Italian side regret selling 20-year-old to Tottenham Hotspur

Italian side Udinese already regretting selling Destiny Udogie to Tottenham

According to Italian outlet Messaggero Veneto, Serie A side Udinese are already regretting selling star Destiny Udogie who is setting the stage alight at Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham’s Destiny Udogie has set the football world abuzz with his sensational performances on the pitch. Destiny Udogie, at just 20 years old, has shattered the glass ceiling of youth and inexperience.

His presence on the pitch has been nothing short of remarkable, a testament to his maturity and dedication. In the short time he’s been with Tottenham, he has featured in all six games and consistently delivered top-tier performances, raising eyebrows and garnering admirers from all corners.

"It could have made him nervy but the way he dealt with it, in the end I thought he was the dominant player on that side of the pitch" 🤩

One of the most significant developments in Tottenham’s recent journey has been Udogie’s partnership with new signings like Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, and Pedro Porro. This alliance has become the bedrock of Tottenham’s defence, striking fear into the hearts of opposition forwards.

Their seamless coordination and understanding have bolstered the team’s resolve and solidified their defensive line, making it a fortress that’s hard to breach. Udinese, Udogie’s former club, has been left reeling from his departure.

They miss not only his defensive prowess but also his dynamic play from the left-hand side of the defence. It’s like trying to plug a leaky dam with a sieve; Udinese has been struggling to cope with the void left by this prodigious talent.

Udinese’s early-season woes in Serie A have sent shockwaves through their camp. A winless streak in their first four games and a dismal 16th-place position in the Serie A table have raised eyebrows and sounded alarm bells.

Whilst the Italian side’s struggles might not just be attributed to Udogie’s absence, he is a key contributing factor to the sudden slump. After all, Tottenham will not want to imagine life without Udogie following his impressive start here.
