European Football’s Top Clubs Circle for Talented Youngster
The winter transfer window may still be months away, but the wheels are already in motion as top European clubs jostle for position to sign Lecce’s highly-rated left-back, Patrick Dorgu. Despite the 19-year-old signing a new contract earlier this month, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur remain keen on securing his services.
A Rising Star in European Football
Dorgu’s breakthrough campaign in Serie A last season earned him three caps for Denmark, and he is now valued at around £30 million by Lecce. The Italian club snapped him up for a mere £165,000 from FC Nordsjaelland back in 2022, and he is already regarded as one of the best young left-backs in European football.
Spurs Lead the Chase, but Chelsea Hold an Ace
According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur currently lead the race for Dorgu’s signature, but the youngster’s self-confessed admiration for Chelsea could influence his final decision. The Blues will be hoping to use this to their advantage as they look to pip their London rivals to the post.
