🚨 Nottingham Forest Throws Down £45M for Spurs Star Bergvall - Deal Heating Up!
17 July 2026, 16:50
📝 THE FULL PICTURE:
Nottingham Forest are back with a monster second offer for Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall - this time £45 million. They already had a £38m bid swatted away last week. The 20-year-old Sweden international reportedly wants the move to the City Ground after seeing limited minutes under Spurs boss Roberto de Zerbi, often stuck out of his natural number six role. Bergvall was Spurs’ player of the year after his first Premier League season, which ended with a Europa League trophy and a new contract until 2031. He’s also got 14 caps and played at the World Cup, where Sweden got bounced in the last 32 by France. New Forest boss Oliver Glasner dodged a direct answer when asked about Bergvall, but said he’s impatient for signings and expects fresh faces for their Portugal training camp. Forest are hunting another midfielder after Elliot Anderson’s record move to City, plus a goalkeeper and a striker to support aging Chris Wood.
💭 MY TAKE:
Dude, Forest are serious - that’s a fat upgrade from £38m to £45m. Bergvall wants out because he’s not getting his preferred gig under De Zerbi? That’s real. But Glasner playing coy with that “impatience” comment? He’s hungry. If Bergvall lands, this midfield gets spicy. Forest learned from last year’s 13-player circus - now it’s quality, not quantity. Let’s see if Spurs bite.
