The thrilling younger Norway global experienced been discussed by Spurs, according to Romano, but it appears these talks by no means acquired significantly sophisticated and a offer was hardly ever basically that close, despite what had been described by some other resources.
Speaking completely to CaughtOffside for his Day-to-day Briefing column, Romano offered details on the construction of Brentford’s deal for Nusa, who will shift for a payment of about €30million, while he will remain with Club Brugge till the finish of the time, joining the Bees in the summer months.
“Despite desire from Chelsea back again in the summer, and additional a short while ago from Tottenham, Antonio Nusa to Brentford is virtually agreed. A deal is in position more than a €30m package deal. The player has also provided the green light-weight to the shift, which will see him stay at Club Brugge right until the close of the season and then join Brentford in June,” Romano mentioned.
“Tottenham were being also in talks around Nusa for a very long time but the truth is they ended up never truly shut to obtaining it done. Brentford now have a verbal agreement in location and they hope to get it signed very quickly, but in any scenario the offer is legitimate from July as Nusa desires to complete the go in the summer time and not now.”
Tottenham admirers may perhaps properly be upset as Nusa appears a excellent youthful talent with a major foreseeable future in the sport, but it will be intriguing to see what variety of influence he can make at Brentford, the place he should definitely get a lot of likelihood to perform regularly in their initial-workforce, which may well not have been confirmed if he’d joined Spurs as a substitute.
