Barcelona snubbed! Swedish sensation Lucas Bergvall to sign for Tottenham in €10m deal

Spurs have reached an agreement with Swedish side Djurgarden to sign the midfielder, who will fly to London on Friday - his 18th birthday - in order to have a medical exam and then sign a five-year contract, <a href="https://theathletic.com/5245323/2024/02/01/tottenham-transfer-lucas-bergvall-barcelona-who/" target="_blank">The Athletic</a> reports. He will then return to his homeland to spend the rest of the season with Djurgarden before officially joining up with the Tottenham squad in the summer.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Spurs faced strong competition for the signing of Bergvall as Barcelona had shown interest in signing him. Djurgarden's sporting director confirmed in December that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-ug/lists/barcelona-man-utd-swedish-teen-sensation-lucas-bergvall-djurgarden-sporting-director/blt7ea741ce452be073" target="_blank">there had been talks with the Spanish club.</a> The youngster, who made his Sweden debut in January, met with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and coach Ange Postecoglou on Monday before travelling to Barcelona to meet with officials from the Catalan club.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Manchester United were also credited with interest in the highly-rated prospect. He has made 29 senior appearances for Djurgarden and scored three times as he helped them to a fourth-place finish in the Allsvenskan in the 2022-23 season, which ended in November.

DID YOU KNOW?

Bergvall will be excited to commit to a long-term contract at Spurs before he returns to Djurgarden to begin the new Swedish season. In the meantime, Tottenham will look to secure a place in the top four of the Premier League to book a place in next season's Champions League.
