Micky van de Ven informs Wolfsburg of his desire to join Tottenham Hotspur
According to De Telegraaf, it appears that Tottenham Hotspur is edging closer to securing the services of Wolfsburg defender Micky van de Ven.
The highly sought-after 22-year-old has expressed his desire to join the London club, and now it’s up to Tottenham to finalize an agreement with his current club. It will not be easy but it’s an important signing.
The player’s father and agent recently travelled to London for crucial transfer discussions. Micky van de Ven, after meeting with Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou, reportedly came away with an excellent feeling about the club and its future plans.
Personal terms between the player and Tottenham have already been agreed upon, highlighting the player’s eagerness to don the Lilywhite jersey. Now, all eyes are on Tottenham to reach an agreement with Wolfsburg and pave the way for Van de Ven’s medical with the North Londoners.
Tottenham’s dire need for defensive reinforcements cannot be overstated, and the acquisition of Van de Ven is poised to address this concern. A gifted reader of the game, the young Dutchman brings with him an impressive skill set that includes exceptional distribution abilities and a blistering pace.
The burning question now is whether Van de Ven can adapt quickly to the rigours of the Premier League and make an instant impact next season. While he has showcased tremendous potential in Germany, the English top flight presents its own unique challenges.
It is highly likely that Van de Ven will be entrusted with the task of partnering with Cristian Romero at the heart of Tottenham’s defence next season. The prospect of this defensive partnership is tantalizing, as both players possess the qualities necessary to form a formidable backline.
Van de Ven is not the only player Tottenham are interested in. They also want Edmond Tapsoba but it will not be easy for the club to convince both players to come to the N17 this summer.
