Another update on Van de Ven from Fabrizio Romano.
“Understand Daniel Levy is taking care of the final steps of negotiation in order to sign Micky van de Ven from Wolfsburg”
“Deal at final stages as revealed yesterday; Tottenham have to agree with Wolfsburg on payment terms and instalments then it will be done.”
Levy faffing over €5m of add-ons for VDV. Holy Christ. 🤦♂️
Romano:
“Understand Tottenham proposal sent to Wolfsburg on Wednesday for Micky van de Ven was €40m fixed fee plus €5m in add-ons”
“Wolfsburg want different payment terms or easier add-ons — otherwise, request will be €50m package.”
“Spurs keep working also on Tapsoba deal.”
@hallenbeck @coys your thoughts?
@hallenbeck ya
He looks the business.
> Young (22)
> Left footed, left sided (which we need)
> Incredible speed he can use for recovery and attack
> Good passing and build up play
> Plays with high intensity, high press, high risk (which Ange demands)
> Known to be a fighter and works hard to improve himself
> Has been compared to Matthijs de Ligt and Cruyff
> Similar to Romero but left-sided
> Currently poor in the air; will need to improve
@hallenbeck @coys appreciated!
All the people in the comments “who is this guy?”
Didn’t they say the same thing about Postecoglou?
@Jabroni Those are people on Twitter X. They are prime idiots. Ignore them.
Essentially: an impressive young defender with the right attributes to play alongside Romero in Ange’s back line. His speed and physicality should help tracking back during counters against us.
Like an ankle-level Dutch ballistic missile.
Him and Rom could form a fearsome partnership with any luck 🤞
@Jabroni Just checked those replies on Twitter X. At this stage, difficult to class those accounts as “people”. It’s more like a gurgling regression to primordial soup.
Say the words Romano, say the words!
