The majority of the Tottenham Hotspur squad are back at Hotspur Way for their first training sessions of pre-season. There are some new faces there, too, and one in particular has earned praise from his coaches.
Spurs made a big move in the transfer market back in January when, on deadline day, they usurped Barcelona to sign Lucas Bergvall.
The Swedish teenager stayed with his former club, Djurgardens, until the end of the season and Tottenham fans have been eager to see the youngster in action.
In a clip shared by the club recently after the first training session of the summer, players are seen taking tests and being put through their paces.
At one point, Bergvall is told by a member of staff: “Unbelievable that you can do that.”
While it’s early days in the pre-season schedule, it appears Bergvall is in top condition, which is reassuring considering he had pulled out of international duty just last month.
In a report from Football.London earlier this week, Bergvall was named as one of the teenage talents arriving for their first training session of the summer, along with Jamie Donley and Mikey Moore, who were all involved with the first-team squad from day one.
According to Spurs insider, Paul O’Keefe, Ange Postecoglou has big plans for Bergvall this season. The player is not expected to depart on loan, as some had suggested.
Instead, he will be integrated into the first-team straight away, with game time expected across the various competitions Spurs are involved in this season.
Spurs Web Opinion
I cannot wait to see Bergvall in action for Spurs, and I have a really good feeling that he will do great things for us this season. He’s such a talented player and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him adapt to the Premier League with ease.
