23-year-old Tottenham player on the market – January move with fee paid in summer 2027

Juventus in early talks to loan Udogie from Tottenham with a conditional obligation to buy in summer 2027; the left-back has asked for more minutes after losing his place under De Zerbi.

Destiny Udogie is a strong contender for Juventus in the January transfer window as the 23-year-old left-back seeks more playing time away from Tottenham. The Italy international has fallen down the pecking order under manager Robert De Zerbi this season, making only two league starts, and has reportedly asked for increased minutes. If unavailable at Spurs, he wants to move elsewhere.

Juventus are looking to strengthen their left-back position and see Udogie as one of the best prospects available. The Serie A club's financial constraints mean they can only pursue a loan deal with an option or conditional obligation to buy. Gazzetta dello Sport reports that negotiations are in early stages, with Juventus seeking to agree a formula that postpones payment to summer 2027.

The two clubs have an established relationship, having already completed summer loans of Guglielmo Vicario and Pape Matar Sarr from Tottenham.

Spurs made Udogie available in the market and are in a strong negotiating position after signing him from Udinese for €18m in 2022 and securing a contract extension until 2030. Juventus still have work to do, but movements are expected in the coming weeks.
