Football.London’s Alasdair Gold has confirmed that Djurgardens sporting director Bosse Andersson was a special guest at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday for the clash against Crystal Palace.
Spurs struck a deal with Djurgardens for the transfer of Lucas Bergvall on deadline day in January, with the midfielder set to link up with Ange Postecoglou’s squad ahead of pre-season.
Spurs Web had previously relayed reports from Sweden which claimed that during the negotiations for the 18-year-old, the two clubs also agreed to discuss a partnership and the possibility of playing a pre-season friendly in the summer (Fotbollskanalen).
A couple of days ago, Andersson himself confirmed that he would be heading to London over the weekend to discuss the partnership with Daniel Levy and the Tottenham hierarchy (Fotbollskanalen).
Gold has now revealed that Anderson was in Daniel Levy’s suite for Tottenham’s 3-1 win over the Eagles on Saturday afternoon.
The journalist explained that the Djurgardens director got the full VIP treatment at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and took selfies with Levy and Son Heung-min.
Gold adds that with the two clubs looking to set up a partnership, which includes exchanging young players, the 55-year-old is likely to make plenty more trips to N17 in the future.
Spurs Web Opinion
It seems like Tottenham went out of their way to woo Anderson, which suggests that Levy and co are keen on a formal partnership with Djurgardens.
This might be the beginning of Spurs setting up similar agreements with plenty of small teams across Europe, with the club potentially planning on adopting a feeder club model like some other bigger clubs across the continent have done.
