Tottenham Hotspur have been strongly linked with Steven Bergwijn.

Tottenham Hotspur are in the Champions League final on Saturday evening, but Mauricio Pochettino still needs to bring in new signings this summer.

Spurs take on Liverpool in Madrid this weekend, and even if they manage to win the game, it’s clear that Tottenham are in need of reinforcements.

Pochettino hasn’t been able to bring in a signing since January 2018, and having reached the Champions League final, a whole host of players are being linked with moves to North London.

One of the latest is PSV Eindhoven winger Steven Bergwijn, with Voetbal International claiming that PSV are expecting Spurs to make a bid by the end of the week.

Speedster Bergwijn, 21, has enjoyed a superb season, racking up 15 goals and 13 assists, and it’s no great surprise that he’s now attracting major interest.

The Dutchman can play on either flank, and his skill, pace and end product would be a smart addition to the Tottenham ranks, potentially becoming the player Spurs had hoped Georges-Kevin Nkoudou would become.

Now, Spurs fans are reacting on Twitter to the news, with some praying that a move will go through, believing that he’s a better signing than Giovani Lo Celso or Dani Ceballos.

Others aren’t so convinced, feeling that Bergwijn is bang average and just another Nacer Chadli, in the sense of a player productive in the Netherlands but not in the Premier League, urging Pochettino to steer clear of Eredivisie signings after Vincent Janssen flopped.
