Spurs have not made an attempt for Arthur Vermeeren, a star for Royal Antwerp, according to today’s Het Belang van Limburg.
With 32 games played so far this season, the 18-year-old has two goals and six assists, making him one of the Jupiler Pro League team’s standout performers.
Spurs is rumored to be among the clubs interested in him due to his impressive performances.
Atlético Madrid are coming closer to securing the midfielder’s services and this operation is ready to be finished. When detailing the Belgium international’s upcoming relocation to Spain, HBVL brings up Tottenham’s interest.
On Wednesday, Royal Antwerp defeated OH Leuven in the Belgian Cup, and the teenager was left out of the squad to protect the €25 million deal. He’s scheduled to fly to Madrid today to complete transfer paperwork to join Diego Simeone’s side.
According to the tabloid, he can pull the plug at any point, which is remarkable given Vermeeren’s refusal to join Spurs.
It says ‘Tottenham called’, but they were advised the player would not travel to England just now. He believes it is ‘too early’ to make the move to the Premier League.
This seems Vermeeren intends to transfer to England in the future, and Atlético appears to be a stepping stone for him.
