Report provides deadline day update on Tottenham’s Steven Bergwijn

The Evening Standard have revealed on their live transfer blog (at Dec 31, 13:00) that Steven Bergwijn is not expected to leave Tottenham Hotspur on deadline day.

Ajax have reportedly been in talks with Tottenham over a deal for Bergwijn over the last couple of weeks (Ekrem Konur).

Dutch journalist Mike Verweij claimed just a few ago that Erik Ten Hag’s side remain locked in negotiations with Spurs over potentially bringing the Netherlands international back to the Eredivisie (De Telegraaf’s football podcast via SoccerNews).

This was also backed up by The Daily Mirror, who revealed on Sunday that Tottenham were looking to offload the former PSV Eindhoven man on deadline day.

However, The Evening Standard have now revealed that Bergwijn is expected to stay put at Spurs until the end of the season.

The report claims the former PSV Eindhoven man’s representatives do not expect the players’ proposed transfer to Ajax to go ahead before the window slams shut.

Spurs Web Opinion

I thought Spurs would cash in on Bergwijn after completing a swoop for Kulusevski. I suspect the North London club were willing to do so and it was just a case of Ajax not being able to meet their valuation. 

Bergwijn certainly has his work cut out in the second half of the season in order to save his Tottenham career as he has likely fallen further down the pecking order after Kulusevski’s arrival.
