The 19-year-old rising star, Dorgu, commenced his football journey with Husum Boldklub before progressing through Nordsjaelland's esteemed youth academy. His career took a significant turn in 2022 when he joined Lecce at the Under-19 level, swiftly making his Serie A debut in August 2023. In his inaugural full season in top-flight football, Dorgu emerged as a pivotal figure for the Italian side, showcasing his talents with 34 appearances and two league goals, drawing attention from major clubs across Europe.
Despite interest from notable teams like Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, and Napoli, Lecce remains steadfast on retaining their prized asset, setting an asking price of £25.5m. Arsenal, in particular, have expressed serious interest, while Napoli's bid fell short of Lecce's valuation. Meanwhile, Chelsea and Spurs are reportedly preparing bids to secure the promising defender's services. With negotiations ongoing and Lecce's reluctance to sell evident, the transfer saga surrounding Dorgu underscores his burgeoning potential.
