Liverpool and Aston Villa keen on Lucas Bergvall

Liverpool and Aston Villa retain an interest in Lucas Bergvall ahead of the summer, as Spurs are set to strongarm any suitor for the Swedish star.

According to Team Talk, Lucas Bergvall is on the radars of the likes of Liverpool and Aston Villa. The two teams and probably more are expected to make enquiries for the midfielder ahead of the summer, and while Spurs are expected to strongarm any suitor coming in for the Swedish star, there’s a possibility of luring the midfielder.

Lucas Bergvall has been a top buy from Tottenham as their plan to invest in young talents has worked out with regard to the Swede. The midfielder has steadily become one of their key players in a short span, but his future is far from certain in north London.

Recent reports from credible sources stated Aston Villa and Chelsea failed with January approaches for the 20-year-old midfield prodigy. Spurs had no intention to consider offers in January, and they might stick with their stance when the summer window opens.

Liverpool were also showing some interest a while back, and it appears the Merseysiders have retained their admiration of the Swedish international ahead of the summer. Together with Aston Villa, the Premier League top four hopefuls are expected to make fresh enquiries for Bergvall in the summer.

The duo views Bergvall as a top young talent, and could make approaches if a door opens. However, Tottenham are set to name a price that is designed to ward off suitors, as they are protected by a long-term contract for the midfielder until 2031.

Will Tottenham sell Lucas Bergvall?

Tottenham view Bergvall as a big future asset and are unlikely to consider any approaches from suitors, although there could be a caveat. Interested parties are keeping a close eye on a potential relegation battle that Spurs could embroil themselves in, as their end-of-the-season finish to the season could have repercussions on the futures of not only the 20-year-old midfield prodigy but others too.

Hence, the likes of Aston Villa and Liverpool could continue keeping tabs on Bergvall as a potential option for the summer. Given how Villa already approached, they could be back in the mix if they had an opening of some sort for the 20-year-old midfield prodigy, and that could be the case with Liverpool, too.
