Tottenham signing Micky van de Ven has revealed his reasons for choosing the North London club.
The Dutch center half appeared to have many teams chasing his signature over the summer.
However, he opted for Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs team, despite the fact they have lost star man Harry Kane.
“Because it’s an amazing club,” he said to reporters on his reasons for joining Spurs.
“I had a good meeting with the trainer and it was a really good meeting, as what I said already in an interview.
“He’s a really good trainer, I love the club, I love the players and I think there is so much potential under this trainer so we will see where this season heads.
“He [Postecoglou] has a good view on football, that’s what I think. Attacking football is what I love, playing with a lot of space in the back doesn’t matter for me.
“Offensive football is what I like and I think if we play a lot of offensive football and we train, we train, we train then I think we can do some beautiful things.”
“I watched Spurs a lot of times because a lot of players from Ajax also went to Spurs and also players from Holland,” he added.
“Always when you see a player go to Spurs it is an amazing step if you went from Ajax, AZ, PSV to Spurs. Of course with the history they didn’t win a prize for a long time but you never know what it is going to happen.”
