SHOCKING TOTTENHAM TRANSFER NEWS! Micky Van de Ven’s Exit Verdict Raises Questions Over £120m+ Transfer Strategy
John Wenham believes any club interested in Micky van de Ven would have to pay more than £120million to sign the Tottenham defender.
The owner of the reputable Spurs podcast Lilywhite Rose can’t see the Dutch international leaving the club anytime soon.
BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks has suggested Tottenham could struggle to keep hold of van de Ven.
But Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – claims that any club would need to pay at least triple the £43million which Spurs paid to sign the 22-year-old (Sky Sports News, 8 August 2023).
“I am not worried about losing van de Ven,” Wenham said.
“We’re talking about arguably one of the best left-footed centre-backs in the world.
“He has got every attribute which clubs are looking for in a modern centre-back, and he is young too.
“He’s only getting better every single time he plays, and he is contracted with Spurs until 2029.
“I don’t want to put a price on him, but any club would need to pay at least triple the value of the deal which we agreed for him.”
Micky van de Ven is priceless to Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham
It could be argued that van de Ven is worth even more than £120million to Tottenham.
Ange Postecoglou likes to play with a high line, and the Dutchman’s pace is what allows that to happen.
Time and time again this season van de Ven has bailed Tottenham out with his recovery speed.
Without him, the team would have to completely change the way that they play.
It could therefore be argued that the centre-back is priceless to Spurs and Postecoglou.
