Micky van de Ven’s agent makes a concerning claim about Real Madrid
Tottenham fans will not like what the agent of Micky van de Ven has said about the Dutchman’s future and the possibility of a potential switch to Real Madrid.
The centre-back has had a testing season due to injuries and Van de Ven even confessed to changing his fitness regime in order to lessen the pressure on his hamstrings.
Despite the 23-year-old’s recurring injury problems, he reportedly continues to be on the radar of top clubs, which shows just how highly the defender is rated across the continent.
Reports have continued to suggest that Van de Ven is on Real Madrid’s centre-back shortlist ahead of the summer window, which is why his agent’s latest admission will concern Spurs fans.
Micky van de Ven told he could play for Real Madrid one day
Van de Ven’s agent, Jose Fortes, has now been speaking to the Spanish press and predictably he was asked about the speculation linking his client with a move to the Spanish capital.
Fortes is convinced that the Tottenham Hotspur man is good enough to play for Los Blancos one day.
He told Marca: “Micky also has the level to play one day in a big club like Real Madrid. In addition, Madrid need a player behind him with his characteristics”.
Fortes also backed the centre-back to overcome his fitness woes, insisting that the Netherlands international is destined for the very top.
The agent added: “For my players, effort is not negotiable. I wasn’t a good footballer, but that’s why I know how to help them. Micky fulfils this quality, he is a born worker. After his injury, he will return to a high level, at the level of any great.”
Spurs could also lose another big-name defender
It is not just Van de Ven that Tottenham are at risk of potentially losing, but also his defensive partner, who is now the subject of transfer interest.
It has been widely reported over recent days that Romero is ready to join Atletico Madrid in the summer after recently speaking with Diego Simeone regarding the possibility.
In fact, some sources have even claimed that Romero is prepared to push for a move away from Tottenham this summer as he is keen to play Champions League football next season.
