Tottenham plan to loan Udogie back to Udinese once he has signed to continue his development in Italy, having scored five goals in 35 games for the Serie A side last season. Manchester City could rival Spurs' bid for the wonderkid after reportedly making an enquiry. Brighton could also reignite their interest in the defender - the Seagulls were said to have had an eye on Udogie earlier in the window. It is possible Brighton would offer Udogie first-team football straight away as left-back Marc Cucurella appears to be heading to Chelsea. The Blues were believed to have reached a 52.5million deal to sign the Spaniard on Wednesday but Brighton denied the claim. The club tweeted: "Contrary to inaccurate reports from numerous media outlets this evening, no agreement has been reached with any club to sell Marc Cucurella." Cucurella had handed in a transfer request to force through a move to the City, but they were unwilling to pay more than 30m.
