An elite European team has joined Tottenham in the race to sign Genoa defender Radu Dragusin.

The Premier League giants were hoping to wrap up a deal for the young center half in the coming weeks.

However, Bild in Germany states that Bayern Munich are sniffing around as well.

The Bavarian giants are hoping they can steal a march on Spurs to secure Dragusin.

The Romanian international is valued by his club at around £26 million, having made 62 appearances for the club.

Spurs are eager to conclude a deal for the defender, but may have to be patient with Bayern looming.
