Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou believes it is right for midfielder Lucas Bergvall to sign a new contract until June 2031. Because of his dedication and development since working with him.

Since joining Spurs for £8.5m, the 19-year-old has improved steadily in terms of his bravery, quick thinking and quick action. And his ability to concentrate and avoid mistakes.UFABET

The new league’s work ethic and increased confidence are a guarantee that the Swedish player is ready to be the long-term backbone of the team.

“It’s very important that he is a key player for the future of the team. I’m delighted for Lucas,” he said at a press conference ahead of the Europa League semi-final first leg against Bodo/Glimt on May 1.

“It’s a reward for his development this year, not to mention his performance and his adaptation.”

“We all remember that a lot of promising young players have come to the English Premier League. It’s a big step up compared to other top leagues. And he came straight from Allsvenskan in Sweden, having only been in the first team for a year. We have to give credit to the kid.”

“He practices hard to refine his game.”

“In the beginning, there were problems with dealing with the intensity of the game. The rhythm of English football, as everyone would expect. We expected it to be like that.”

“Many times the world of football and our lives are about opportunities.” 

“He got his chance this year because of the situation we were in and he took it with both hands.”  

“Even though we have a full squad to choose from now. He was still chosen to play because he seized his opportunity.”

“I think our core players right now are young players, so I hope we can build on that.”  

This season, Bergvall has made 45 appearances in all competitions , scoring one goal and providing four assists.
