‘Unbelievable’: Conor Coady says Tottenham have made a truly incredible £35m signing

Tottenham have done some truly brilliant transfer business this season.

The likes of James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario have both turned out to be fantastic signings, while the best of the bunch may well have been Micky Van de Ven.

The Dutch defender has become such an important player for Tottenham in such a short space of time, and it’s exciting to imagine how the future could look for the Dutchman.

Speaking on , Conor Coady has been discussing Van de Ven, and he’s been full of praise for the defender due to his immense pace and he’s also praised Spurs for the signing.

Conor Coady praises Micky Van de Ven

The Leicester defender spoke highly of the Spurs star.

“I went for Van de Ven at Tottenham. I think he has been an outstanding signing.

“We were talking about a profile of a centre-back these days, but look at where the line is for Tottenham and he has that pace to get back.

“If you are going to play that way, and how Tottenham have recruited in terms of buying him, you mentioned before about signings of the season. He would be right up there. He really, really will. It’s unbelievable. He has been a fantastic signing for Tottenham.”

Signing of the season?

When all is said and done, Van de Ven may be the signing of the season.

At just he’s a relative bargain, and at the age of just 22, he should have plenty of room to grow and improve as a player.

He’s already one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League, and he could be up there with the best for the next 10 years or so.

Van de Ven was a truly inspired signing this summer, and Spurs are definitely a much better team with Van de Ven in the side.
