“Latest update” – Sky Sports reporter shares big Tottenham & Bergvall news live from Hotspur Way
Tottenham completes £8.5 million deal to sign Lucas Bergvall.
Tottenham Hotspur have agreed to pay Swedish club Djurgardens £8.5 million for Lucas Bergvall’s services.
According to the Evening Standard, Tottenham Hotspur are close to signing Lucas Bergvall. The 17-year-old wonder is a great prospect for the future, and Spurs have no intention of missing out on him amidst interest in him from Barcelona.
Lucas Bergvall rose through the ranks of Brommapojkarna before joining Djurgardens in winter 2023. He has gone from strength to strength since the move, appearing in 29 appearances for the Swedish club’s first team.
The central midfielder has four goal contributions to his name. His exceptional efforts have also earned him his first cap for the Swedish national team. The fact that he has already represented Sweden makes it evident that he has a unique talent. This is why he has been linked to a number of clubs.
A young prospect in high demand.
Tottenham Hotspur and Barcelona are two clubs vying for his services. Both clubs see him as a player who can bring depth to their rosters in the short term and potentially become one of their team’s stalwarts.
They’ve been keeping an eye on him for a time and are currently negotiating a transfer. Spurs have taken the lead after agreeing to terms with the Swedish club, which will see the 17-year-old move to England this summer. Djurgardens has agreed to accept the North London club’s £8.5 million offer.
However, the athlete has yet to decide his future and is in no hurry because a choice does not have to be made before the deadline. Meanwhile, Tottenham is waiting for the wonderkid to choose between them and Barcelona.
Bergvall visited Tottenham’s training complex on Monday, but he was in Barcelona last night, indicating that he is unsure about his next move. With both clubs pressing hard, it will be intriguing to see which project he prefers.
