Spurs-bound Udogie believes he is destined to grow under Conte

Destiny Udogie expects to thrive under Antonio Conte as he closes in on a move to Tottenham.

The wing-back on Sunday flew to London to complete a switch to Spurs for a fee reported to be in the region of £21million (€25.1m).

Tottenham will loan the 19-year-old back to Serie A club Udinese for the 2022-23 season as part of the deal 

Udogie is relishing the opportunity to work with Conte when he eventually links up with the Premier League club.

“I’m very happy. It’s a good feeling to go to the Premier League, work with Conte, sign with Tottenham,” he told Tuttomercatoweb.

“I am convinced that with Mr. Conte I will be able to grow further. For now, it is also important to return on loan to Udine, I want to have a good season.”

5 + 4 – Among the players with at least five goals and four assists in the Big-5 European leagues 2021/22, only Florian Wirtz and Jamal Musiala are younger than Destiny Udogie. Future.#SalernitanaUdinese
