Tottenham's Destiny Udogie named as Premier League star 'threatened with a gun' by football agent

Tottenham defender Destiny Udogie was allegedly threatened at gunpoint in a dramatic street attack by a football agent - who was then arrested and bailed.

The 22-year-old, who played in their Champions League clash with Copenhagen on Wednesday night, is understood to have been targeted while walking with a friend on a busy north London street at the start of September.

It is understood the confrontation concerned Udogie's decision not to use the agent, who cannot be named for legal reasons.

Udogie joined Tottenham in 2022 and has continued to play regularly for the club since the incident, including an appearance from the bench in the win over West Ham just seven days later.
