Spurs knock back enquiries for midfielder | OneFootball

One of the few shining lights of this terrible Tottenham Hotspur season has been the emergence of Lucas Bergvall. In the winter of last year, a then 17-year old Bergvall rejected a move to Spanish side Barcelona in order to join Spurs a few months later, ahead of the 24/25 season.

After a steady start to life in North London, Bergvall has really thrived in the last few months - become a regular starter in the midfield, and impressing with his performances both on and off of the ball. His best moment was surely the goal in the Carabao Cup semi final first leg against Liverpool, with a superb curling finish into the bottom corner.

Owing to his performances in a Spurs shirt this season, Swedish outlet Fotbollskanalen have reported that the club have rejected any enquiries into the player's availability, with the likes of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund said to have shown an interest in the player. Spurs are said to consider the midfielder 'untouchable'.

At the moment, the player has a contract at the club until the summer of 2029, so there is absolutely no pressure to sell for the time being. There would be serious outrage, and rightly so, within the fanbase if a player with as much potential as Bergvall was allowed to leave the club. It would be a damning indicment of where Spurs are as a club if he was allowed to leave.

The Spurs fans see the likes of Bergvall, Archie Gray and Mikey Moore as the future of the club. All three players were selected in media outlet GOAL's list of the 50 best teenagers in football, as well as Luka Vuskovic and Yang Min-hyeok, whom many people also see as the future of the club, with Vuskovic in particular a player that people are extremely excited about.

No doubt, the player himself will have high ambitions, and he will want to be competing at a better level than Spurs currently are, so there is that to take into consideration too. That said, having compatriot and international team mate Dejan Kulusevski at the club should help in that regard. There is very little doubt that the latter helped Bergvall settle into life at Spurs.

To think that Kulusevski was born in the 21st century yet is six years older than Bergvall, a regular for club and a senior international himself, is pretty crazy. We are all getting old.
