Has impressed me this season. Look forward to seeing what a competent manager can do with him.

We certainly play like a Pub teamJust turned 19. Playing at a huge pub. No analysis necessary at this stage.
Gerrard, Lampard etc at 18. Not worldbeaters. De Bruyne, not deemed good enough for Chelsea.
Let's see how the young man develops, hopefully with a manager who is able to get the very most out of an obvious talent.
According to some lad on tik tok, he's the lowest paid first team player in our squad (the video is in the other teams transfer thread). He ran through the entire league and there were some surprises in it. Ait-Nouri at Wolves is on less per week than Bergvall.All good. His current contract doesn't expire until 2029 but £15k for a player of his talent is clearly insufficient.
He might just turn it down or have a clause inserted. If I were his agent I might insist on that.
Think that's probably the reason for quintupling his wages, as opposed to doubling with the promise of further incremental uplifts each year if things are going well.He might just turn it down or have a clause inserted. If I were his agent I might insist on that.

Glenn Hoddle makes emphatic Lucas Bergvall prediction after Tottenham gem stars against Eintracht Frankfurt
Glenn Hoddle tips Tottenham star Lucas Bergvall for a 'frightening' future after his Europa League display against Eintracht Frankfurt.tbrfootball.com
Glenn Hoddle tips Tottenham star Lucas Bergvall for ‘frightening’ future
Hoddle, speaking on TNT Sports, noted how Bergvall has shown considerable improvement in less than one full season, saying young players can often take two seasons.
The Tottenham legend then backed Bergvall to be absolutely “frightening” as a player when he gets closer to his prime of around 23 or 24 years of age.
“For me the most important thing is he’s been thrown in, he’s had to be thrown in in half the games, but mentality-wise, he’s more than coped with it,” said Hoddle.
“And it’s just going to grow and grow. When he’s 24, what’s he going to be like?
“He’s learnt so quickly. Some people take two seasons to grow and they progress and they improve.
“He’s improved in such a quick time. So what he’s going to be like when he’s 23, 24… he’s going to be frightening.”
What Alasdair Gold has noticed about Lucas Bergvall behind the scenes
Bergvall had a tricky start to life at Tottenham, but he now looks well suited to life in English football after showing remarkable improvement.
Football.london’s Alasdair Gold recently spoke of how he’s been noticing Bergvall looking bulkier every time he sees him, suggesting he’s putting the hours in at the gym.
Speaking on Gold & Guest Talk Tottenham, Gold claimed: “He’s turning into a big lad as well, I watched the footage of the players coming out the tunnel and he is properly bulking up.
“Every time I see him he looks a little bit stronger and stronger and I know Ange said it’s because he keeps following Deki (Kulusevski) in the gym.
“But it’s impacting his play as well, he’s so much stronger on the ball. He’s going to be one of the first names on the team sheet going forward.”

Doesn't have a hell of a lot of leverage. He'll snap our hands off rather than another 2 years at least on 15kHe might just turn it down or have a clause inserted. If I were his agent I might insist on that.
