Lucas Bergvall arrived at Tottenham Hotspur in the summer and is enjoying life at the Premier League side.
Back in February, Spurs beat Barcelona to agree a deal with Djurgårdens IF for the 18-year-old. He’s clocked in 324 minutes from 10 games for Tottenham.
The midfielder has started for Tottenham in the Europa League and the EFL Cup but not in the Premier League.
Former Arsenal star Anders Limpar has told Fotboll Direkt that Bergvall is settling in well at the English capital club.
Limpar knows the Tottenham player’s father, Andreas Bergvall, well, and found out about Lucas’ life at Tottenham.
“I sat and talked to his dad for about half an hour a couple of weeks ago,” he said.
“We talked about how young he is and his dad, Andreas Bergvall, I played with him in BP so we know each other. I asked him how he’s getting on in London, he’s loving it. His dad is over for a month, then his mum comes for a month, he has a girlfriend who flies over. So, he’s doing very well.”
Tottenham have won five and lost five of their 11 Premier League games this season and are currently 10th in the table. They have six points from their last five league games. There’s been some suggestions in the UK that Ange Postecoglou’s future at the club could be in danger.
The former Gunners man has advised Bergvall to ‘ride out the storm’ as he believes the manager may be out of the door soon. He also backed his compatriot to have a bright future at Tottenham.
“He’s a good footballer, but he’s young,” Limpar explained.
“If you look at Tottenham’s form in the Premier League, it’s got a bit worse recently and you don’t lean on an 18/19-year-old from Sweden, you take the old guard, and it hasn’t worked.
“The games I’ve seen of Lucas he’s been fantastic, and he just needs to be a little calm and ride out the storm and there I think it might be time for a change of coach.
“They have one of the most talented teams in the Premier League, but they can’t get it together team-wise at the moment. But Lucas will be a mainstay for Tottenham in the future, I am absolutely sure of that.”
