Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe has revealed that Lucas Bergvall will have a key role to play at the North London club next season.
Lucas Bergvall arrives at Tottenham this summer
There is plenty of excitement among Spurs fans about Bergvall’s impending arrival, with the 18-year-old continuing to deliver outstanding displays for Djurgardens since January.
The teenager has been tipped for big things back in Sweden but it remains to be seen how he will be able to cope with the increased pressure as well as the step up in quality at N17.
The midfielder might need to bide his time to get up to speed with the Premier League, with Alasdair Gold stating on the Gold and Guest Talk Tottenham Podcast earlier this month that the people around the youngster expect him to take at least six months to bed in.
Postecoglou has big plans for Lucas Bergvall
Some might wonder if Tottenham decide to loan out Bergvall but O’Keefe has now suggested on The Last World on Spurs podcast that a temporary departure is not on the cards for the Swede.
He revealed that based on everything he has heard, the midfielder will be integrated straight into the first team by Ange Postecoglou when he arrives at Hotspur Way.
Spurs will be playing in four competitions again next season, so there should be plenty of minutes to go around if the youngster impresses in training.

Even if Ange and his coaching staff decide during pre-season that Bergvall is not quite ready to be a regular first-team regular, they would still want to keep him at the club for a few months so that he can get used to Tottenham’s style of play.
The midfielder might get some game time in the group stages of the Europa League and Spurs could think about a loan move in January or perhaps next summer.
