Tottenham Hotspur continue to chase Micky van de Ven with the player’s agent believing that the move would be a positive step.

The agent of Micky van de Ven appears to be interested in securing a move to Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

Tottenham are chasing two centre back signings this summer and are being linked with a number of names.

Tosin Adarabioyo and Max Kilman are two Premier League names mentioned whilst Edmond Tapsoba is an option a little further afield.

Tottenham’s priority seems to be another Bundesliga defender though with Wolfsburg ace Van de Ven a prime target.

Rumours really started accelerating earlier in the week as De Telegraaf reporter Mike Verweij claimed that Van de Ven had agreed a five-year Tottenham deal.

Fabrizio Romano claimed on Wednesday that Tottenham have now sent a first offer to Wolfsburg and are hoping to get the Dutchman signed up.

This move seems to be heading in the right direction for Tottenham and Van de Ven’s agent hasn’t calmed the rumours.

Mick van de Ven agent open to Tottenham move

Jose Fortes Rodriguez – who was a defender in the Netherlands during his playing days with AZ Alkmaar and RBC Roosendaal – serves Van de Ven’s agent.

A key part of ‘Team Raiola’ following Mino Raiola’s passing, Fortes Rodriguez is now seemingly keen to move Van de Ven.

Fortes Rodriguez has told Wolfsburger Allgemeine Zeitung that Spurs ‘would be a good move’ for Van de Ven right now.

The Spaniard added that there is no agreement yet and talks must be held with Wolfsburg to figure out the next steps.

“We have to talk to VfL first. I think Spurs would be a good move for Micky. But there is no agreement,” said Fortes Rodríguez.

Van de Ven and his agent seem keen to join Tottenham, especially amid claims from Fabrizio Romano that the defender’s ‘strong desire’ to sign for Spurs has been communicated to Wolfsburg.

Sorting out personal terms won’t be a problem so it looks like a fee is the only thing standing in Tottenham’s way from landing a new left-sided centre back – and Ange Postecoglou will want this sorted soon.
