As Fiorentina seeks to restructure its defensive flanks, 23-year-old Italian international Destiny Udogie is an alternative target. The Tottenham left-back is being considered because the club's main objective, Matteo Ruggeri of Atletico Madrid, is a complex transfer due to his club's valuation. Fiorentina's sporting director, Fabio Paratici, reportedly intends to reinforce the position, and the club could approach Spurs with a proposal for a loan with an option or obligation to buy Udogie.
Udogie, who joined Tottenham from Udinese in August 2022 for a fee reported to be €18 million, has a contract that runs until 2030 and has also been linked with Juventus. He made 20 appearances and provided 1 assist in the 2025/2026 Premier League season and has 12 caps for Italy. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €30.00m. Reports from March 2026 mentioned a potential Juventus offer of approximately €20 million, while in mid-2025, Tottenham's asking price was said to be over €30 million.
