Micky van de Ven says one Tottenham teammate is absolutely ‘unbelievable’

Tottenham Hotspur defender Micky van de Ven has heaped praise on one of his teammates after what he did recently.

The atmosphere and chemistry inside the Spurs dressing room is just phenomenal now, isn’t it?

Gone are the days when it was all doom and gloom after every bad result. Ange Postecoglou has built a culture where everyone is together and happy no matter what.

That is bringing the best out of almost every player, including Van de Ven, who is having a magnificent season at Tottenham.

Micky van de Ven raves about Tottenham teammate

Micky van de Ven only joined Tottenham last summer, but he hit the ground running.

The Dutchman has been incredible on the pitch and he seems to have settled in nicely off it too. He has become a fan favourite at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Van de Ven’s teammates deserve a lot of praise too for helping the defender behind the scenes at the club. It’s never easy for someone to come from a different country and adapt to life in England.

One player who has become a good friend to Van de Ven is Tottenham captain Heung-min Son.

The South Korean has always been regarded as a phenomenal teammate off the pitch, and Van de Ven has said the same about him now.

After Son completed 400 appearances for Tottenham a few days ago, many of his teammates – past and present – have sent him some lovely messages.

Harry Kane went as far as saying he was ‘lucky’ to have played next to Son, and Van de Ven has now heaped praise on the Spurs skipper too.

In a video released by Tottenham on X, Van de Ven says: “Sonny, 400 games for the Spurs, unbelievable! Congratulations my friend!

“What a player you are. You are a top guy on and off the pitch and as a captain, always wants the best for the team and always gives 100 per cent.”

Daniel Levy needs to avoid costly Heung-min Son mistake

Daniel Levy has done a lot of good things for Tottenham Hotspur over the years, but he has often come under criticism for some of his decisions too.

One of them was because he allowed Harry Kane to enter the final year of his contract last summer, which forced Spurs to sell him in order to avoid losing him for nothing 12 months later.

Tottenham can’t afford to let their key players enter the final year of their deals, but Heung-min Son is about to do the same – he has just 14 months left on his contract.

Levy needs to start negotiations over a new deal for Son ASAP. Losing him just a year of selling Kane would be disastrous, especially after the kind of season he has had.

Reports have claimed that clubs in Saudi Arabia are keeping an eye on Son and are willing to make a big move for him this summer.
