Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly targeting Stoke City ‘Player of the Year’ Bae Joon-Ho, but not his teammate Bauter Burger.
“Tottenham and Sheffield United are among four clubs vying to sign the Stoke talent, and we are told a deal could be done for a fee of £12 million,” according to the UK’s TeamTalk.
The player TeamTalk were referring to was Stoke defensive midfielder Burger.
“Berger has become the most popular player at Bet365 (Stoke’s home ground),” the outlet said. “We understand his performances have attracted interest from Premier League (PL) teams,” it said, adding: “Sources say Stoke must keep hold of Burger in the summer transfer window, with Tottenham and two PL sides interested in him. Sheffield Wednesday have also joined the race.”
Burger is a 2001-born midfielder from the Netherlands who specializes in defensive midfield, standing at 6-foot-2 with a complete physique. He started 31 of the 39 games he played this season, playing a total of 2,639 minutes, scoring three goals and providing four assists despite playing as a defensive midfielder, helping Stoke survive a relegation battle at the end of the season.
As you can see from his attacking points, Berger is a defensive midfielder, but he has a great ability to read the flow of the game and deploy the ball in attacking situations. He can link up passes with his teammates to facilitate the attack and sometimes even get up high to threaten the opposition goal with a shot.
Even though Stoke are in the lower divisions of the English Championship, Burger’s talents have been recognized by a number of teams. “Sources believe Burger will make the leap to the world’s top leagues sooner rather than later,” said TeamTalk.
Tottenham’s reasons for targeting 토토사이트 Berger are clear. It’s clear why Tottenham would want to sign Berger: to prepare for the departure of their top three options and to secure their long-term future.
Tottenham manager Anzhi Postecoglou has used Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarri as his front three this season, with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Rodrigo Bentancur, and Oliver Skipp as rotational options.
Of these, Hojbjerg and Skip are expected to leave Tottenham in the summer transfer window. It has also been suggested by some that Spurs could be looking to offload Bissouma as well. With three of their top three options out of the picture, Spurs will need to strengthen the back three.
At 23 years old, Berger is good enough to start immediately. He’s also young enough that he’s the kind of player a team can count on for years to come. This is why Tottenham have been linked with Burger.
With all the talk of Burger moving to a big club, it”s disappointing 파워볼사이트 추천 that the reigning Stoke Player of the Year has yet to be linked with a big club.
Joining Stoke ahead of this season, Bae won the hearts of the local fans with two goals and five assists with his aggressive dribbling and passing, and was named Stoke’s Player of the Year for 2023-24 in his first season.
Of course, he’s still only 20 years old, so there’s plenty more to look forward to. He has already shown this season that he can play in the English second tier.
