Djurgarden sporting director Bosse Anderson has revealed Ange Postecoglou’s plans for Lucas Bergvall at Tottenham Hotspur.

Representatives of the Swedish club were in north London last week for a meeting over a potential partnership with Spurs.

And it seems the recent deal between the two clubs for Bergvall was also discussed heavily.

Tottenham’s Lucas Bergvall plans

In the January transfer window, Tottenham were able to beat the likes of Barcelona to the signing of the 18-year-old talent.

Bergvall did return to Djurgarden for the remainder of the campaign before making the move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer.

A deal for Bergvall has seemingly earned Spurs more than just an exciting teenager with a potential partnership being formed between the two clubs.

Speaking on the Swedish podcast Fotbolls morgan, Anderson said: “The coach and everyone is excited for him to get there. Everyone says it, players, leaders or directors alike. He is supposed to be there on the first of July, when his new job starts.”

“He will be in the A squad, they will play in Scotland and then they will go to South Korea for a training camp.

“Then come all the matches, the Premier League, the FA Cup, maybe European games. So he will have games where he can grow into the team. They have signed a long contract, I am completely convinced that he will be able to grow into the team and be a priority player in the team.”

Tottenham’s Djurgarden partnership

Nothing has been made official yet with the clubs only meeting at Hotspur Way last week, but it sounds like the two sides are keen to form an agreement.

Speaking ahead of the meeting, Anderson suggested a partnership could see loan deals agreed between the two clubs.

And it is a deal which could seriously benefit Spurs considering some of the talent which is coming out of Sweden.

Ange Postecoglou will already be familiar with Dejan Kulusevski’s ability and reports claim Spurs are keen on the 18-year-old Roony Bardghji.

But it will be interesting to see how big of a role Bergvall does actually play at Spurs next season.

He has only recently turned 18-years-old which will make him the youngest midfielder in the Spurs first team.

He is clearly a very talented player, however, he will have a huge task on his hands to disrupt the likes of Pape Matar Sarr, Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur.
