Teen Sensation Bergvall Pens Fresh Spurs Deal
Tottenham Hotspur have rewarded 19-year-old Lucas Bergvall’s impressive first season in North London by extending his contract until 2031. The Swedish midfielder, who arrived from Djurgården for £8.5 million in summer 2024, has quickly become a key member of Ange Postecoglou’s squad.
Bergvall’s new five-year deal—announced on Tuesday—cements Spurs’ faith in their teenage recruit just days before their crucial Europa League semi-final first leg against Bodø/Glimt at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Rapid Rise from Stockholm to London
After beating Barcelona to his signature last February, Bergvall made 45 appearances in all competitions during the 2024/25 campaign, including 27 Premier League outings. His only goal so far was the decisive strike in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Liverpool back in January, underlining his knack for big-game moments.
“It’s been a whirlwind season. I’m thrilled to commit my future to Spurs and repay the faith the club has shown in me.” — Lucas Bergvall
Despite a challenging domestic league season—Spurs currently sit 16th—Bergvall’s performances have been among the few bright sparks. His energy, passing range and tactical awareness have won praise from teammates and the coaching staff alike.
