England's The Boy Hotspur reported on the 11th (Korea time) 'Tottenham defender Destiny Udogi is attracting attention from clubs including Manchester City with an impressive performance'
The Boyhotsper said 'Man City are planning to reorganize their squad in the upcoming transfer window. Guardiola pointed out that reinforcing fullbacks is a priority. Udogi has also emerged as a viable alternative. His characteristics are in line with Guardiola's tactical demands.'
European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano also sees the upcoming transfer market under Guardiola as a color of the plan, and Udogi could also be a target for recruitment. However, Manchester City also knows that negotiations with Tottenham are not easy. Manchester City has already watched Udo-gi since the days of Udinese.

U Do-ki is a defender who joined Tottenham ahead of the 2022-2023 season. Udogi, who made his professional debut with Elas Verona, began to shine through his loan to Udinese. He was also listed on the Italian national team by age, and he constantly received attention on the Italian stage, and Tottenham succeeded in recruiting him by paying attention to him.
In Tottenham's first season, he left for Udinese instead of Tottenham and played in Serie A. Last season he played for Udinese with three goals and four assists in a total of 34 games. The weight of the team was so great that he started 31 out of 33 Serie A games. His best performance on the Serie A stage was not sure whether he would be able to play as a main player at Tottenham until the start of last season.
However, Tottenham reformed the team under coach Enze Postecoglou and chose Udo-gi as one of the pillars of their defense. Even though it was his first season in the Premier League, Udogi won the main competition with teammates such as Sergio Reguilon, Ryan Sessegnon and Ben Davies. This season, he has spent a lot of time missing due to injuries, but he is still considered the main defender of Tottenham.

U Do-ki showed great strength in the attacking situation when he was in good form for Tottenham. Along with fast overlap, it penetrated into the midfielder area and helped build-up by linking with strikers and midfielders. He also has good ball guard and dribbling skills, making space for strikers located on the left, including Son Heung-min and Hishalisson. He also played well in defense, not falling behind based on his solid physicality.
Tottenham is on the verge of losing its main defender as Manchester City recruited him along with his performance. However, Tottenham also does not intend to give up Udo-gi easily. "Tottenham considers U Do-ki an essential player under Postecoglou and is reluctant to part ways," The Boy Hospers said. Attention is also focusing on what kind of negotiations Tottenham and Manchester City will hold over Udo-gi.
