Liverpool have received a major boost in their pursuit of defender Micky van de Ven
Tottenham Hotspur’s contract negotiations with star defender Micky van de Ven have abruptly hit the brakes.
Initially, club hierarchy had mapped out a clear strategy to sit down with the 25-year-old’s representatives before the season’s end to reward him with a lucrative new package.
However, with Tottenham enduring a catastrophic domestic campaign that has left them dangling dangerously above the Premier League relegation zone, the Dutch international has understandably paused all long-term commitments, according to Football Insider.
Sensing an imminent opportunity, European heavyweights, most notably Liverpool and Barcelona, are maintaining a close interest in the situation.
