After the youngster turns down Barcelona, Tottenham signs Bergvall.
Lucas Bergvall from Djurgården has been signed by Tottenham for a set cost of about €10 million (£8.5 million, $10.9 million) with add-ons.
The 18-year-old decided to join the north London team over Barcelona, as The Athletic disclosed yesterday.
One of Europe’s most sought-after prospects, the midfielder looked set to sign with the Spanish team until Spurs, under the leadership of their Danish technical director Johan Lange, persuaded the Swede to choose them instead.
Bergvall, who will sign a six-year contract with Spurs on July 1st of this year, will remain with the team till 2029.
The adolescent, who made his senior team debut during their 2-1 triumph, is already a member of the Sweden national team.
This is what I’ll leave you with: a relocation that was scheduled to take place on the day of the deadline but didn’t.
Enzo Maresca missed out on his main target, Inter Milan midfielder Stefano Sensi, in the closing hours of the transfer window. It’s difficult to predict how this will affect things going forward.
After all, the race to place in the top two of the second division and gain automatic promotion to the Premier League for the upcoming season is already exciting.

Bergvall’s arrival in England will have to wait until the next season, but Ange Postecoglou, the manager of Spurs, expects that the news of the deal will serve to further cement the team’s standing as a fantastic destination for young players.
The proof already includes Radu Dragusin, who was signed in January, as well as the accomplishments of this season with Destiny Udogie, Pape Matar Sarr, and Micky van de Ven. Postecoglou is seen here:
