Tottenham fans threw a welcoming party for a fantastic defender.

Destiny Udogie’s agent has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are eager to put his client at the disposal of Ange Postecoglou and have backed him for a senior Italy call-up.

Tottenham signed Udogie from Udinese last summer but quickly loaned him back to the Italian club.

After an outstanding Serie A season with Andrea Sottil’s side, the 20-year-old will now return to his parent club and compete for a starting spot.

The player’s agent Stefano Antonelli confirmed that Spurs have plans for his client heading to the new season.

Stressing the quality Udogie offers, Antonelli insisted that the 20-year-old would be welcome at clubs such as Napoli, Roma, or Inter Milan.

And Antonelli believes that Udogiede deserves a chance to be in the Italian national team once he finishes participating in the UEFA European Under-21 Championship.

“He’s going to Tottenham, who have a new manager and have already expressed their feelings about Udogie,” Antonelli added.

“He could play for Napoli, just as he could for Roma or Inter.”

“Everyone expects him to join the senior national team after the UEFA European Under-21 Championship.”

“Today, I believe it belongs to him, but [Roberto] Mancini will make the final decision.”

Udogie, who is now representing Italy in Romania and Georgia for the competition, has gone through various youth levels for Italy.
