Tottenham Announce £20m Destiny Udogie As Seventh Summer Signing

Tottenham have announced the signing of Destiny Udogie from Udinese.

The 19-year-old will spend the 2022/23 campaign back on loan with the Bianconeri with a view to joining up with Spurs’ first-team next summer.

An initial £15million will be paid to Udinese for the teenage wing-back after he agreed personal terms and flew into London on Sunday evening, spending the night at Hotspur Way ahead of his tests.

The Italy youth international has signed a five-year deal.

Udogie, 19, follows Richarlison, Yves Bissouma, Ivan Perisic, Djed Spence, Clement Lenglet and Fraser Forster in signing for Tottenham this summer after Antonio Conte secured a return to the Champions League.

The Spurs coach personally recommended the signing after being impressed by his displays for Hellas Verona and Udinese.

The deal is similar to the one that saw Pape Matar Sarr join Tottenham last summer before being immediately loaned back to French club Metz for the 2021-22 season.
