Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly re-signed the Dutchman.
Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly re-signed a certain Michael Vorm on a short-term deal.
First-choice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris was ruled out until 2020 after suffering a nasty elbow injury during Spurs’ 3-0 defeat by Brighton & Hove Albion prior to the international break.
That leaves Paulo Gazzaniga as Tottenham’s only fit and experienced goalkeeper – until now.
According to NOS in the Netherlands, Mauricio Pochettino has brought the Dutch goalkeeper back to North London on a deal until the end of the season.
Vorm was released by Pochettino this past summer after five years at Tottenham, managing 13 Premier League appearances in that time.
But some fans aren’t happy about bringing the 35-year-old free agent back. Here’s how they reacted on Twitter:
It isn’t the worst idea in the world, in Tottenham’s defence.
There are definitely worse covering options out there, providing Pochettino intends for him to be a back-up for Gazzaniga.
If Vorm has been signed to start games then Spurs’ horrendous season could go from bad to a lot worse.
