Tottenham have now been told they can sign Festy Ebosele for a bargain sum.

It was Mondo Udinese who provided the information.

So, what is the situation involving Tottenham and Festy Ebosele? Let’s take a look…

Tottenham told Festy Ebosele price

Well – according to Mondo Udinese – Spurs are keen to sign the Republic of Ireland international after he caught the eye of Fabio Paratici.

The Italian news outlet – who also call Ebosele the new Destiny Udogie – believe Tottenham admire the Udinese No.2 and a deal could be done for just €15m (£13m).

That would seemingly represent a bargain for Ange Postecoglou.

Ebosele has shone in Italy since taking the bold step of leaving Derby County for Udinese in 2022.

The 21-year-old has become a regular under Gabriele Cioffi at the Stadio Friuli, making 26 appearances in all competitions so far this season, providing one assist.

Ebosele can operate as a right-back or a right wing-back, so Postecoglou may be eyeing a cheap option to provide competition for Pedro Porro.

Wayne Rooney said Festy Ebosele can become a superstar

Interestingly, Ebosele has already received a glowing endorsement from none other than Wayne Rooney – who managed him at Derby County.

The 38-year-old even said the Irishman could become a superstar in future.

Rooney told the Derby Telegraph: “Festy can be a superstar. He just needs to keep his focus, his concentration, and keep learning to develop, but just by sheer pace and power alone, he has got something which every player wants.

“The next part of that is the details, the little aspects of his game, which I talk about after matches. If he gets them right, he can go right to the top.”

Be sure to keep an eye on this situation, as Ebosele could soon return to England with Tottenham.
