da bet sport： Tottenham Hotspur are attempting to sign Steven Bergwijn from PSV Eindhoven before the January transfer deadline.
da winzada777： Football FanCast sources have confirmed that there is a desire to bring the Netherlands international into the club and that a bid of £21m has been tabled.
This is despite Spurs prioritising the signing of a striker in this transfer window.
Indeed, FFC has previously reported that the club have been offered a number of strikers to fill the void left by Harry Kane’s injury.
There have been talks with Real Sociedad over Willian Jose and there is interest in AC Milan forward Krzysztof Piatek.
But this is a prime example of Spurs grabbing a chance that has been presented to them.
The big fat Tottenham quiz of 2019 – how much do you remember about the last year at Spurs?
Bergwijn is a winger by trade but he can also play as a striker or as an attacking midfielder and his versatility is sure to appeal to manager Jose Mourinho.
More than that, though, Spurs are pouncing on a huge opportunity at a time when investment is much-needed. Spurs are sixth in the Premier League, six points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, and continue to fight in the FA Cup and the Champions League.
It speaks highly to the strategy that Daniel Levy is instituting after the appointment of Mourinho.
Bergwijn is available and Spurs have seized their chance; the deal is not yet done but the winger is in England and there is hope that a deal can be reached before the deadline.
Proactivity in the transfer market is a sign of a club looking to move forward and bring in the best possible reinforcements whenever possible.
This is a step forward; both Mourinho and Levy will be delighted if this gets over the line.
Meanwhile, Spurs have to sell one man this month!
