Former Tottenham assistant and caretaker Cristian Stellini has delivered his verdict on the club's new defensive signing.

Spurs have broken the bank to secure Radu Dragusin from Genoa ahead of European rivals like Bayern Munich.

Stellini, who was working under Antonio Conte's coaching staff last season, is impressed by the move.

"Dragusin is a very strong player," said Stellini to Buoncalcioatutti.

"He has demonstrated that he has value and important characteristics.

“As it has been for many players, making such an important leap will take some time. We are certainly talking about an important prospect."
