Udinese defender Destiny Udogie expects to thrive under Antonio Conte as he closes in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur.
The wing-back on Sunday flew into London to complete a switch to Spurs for a fee reported to be in the region of £21m.
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.”
