Darren Ambrose says Micky van de Ven is the player who has impressed him the most among Tottenham’s new signings.
Van de Ven was, by no means, the most high-profile of Tottenham’s signings in the summer, with the centre-back being a relative unknown to Premier League fans, arriving at the club on the back one good season for Wolfsburg.
In fact, many Spurs even preferred Bayer Leverskusen’s Edmond Tapsoba over the Dutchman in the summer when it was reported that the club were looking to sign one of the two (Football.London).
However, the 22-year-old has hardly put a foot wrong since arriving at the club and has showcased composure and maturity that one would expect of a vastly experienced player.
Van de Ven deservedly won his first two caps for the Netherlands during the international break, coming on as a substitute against both France and Greece.
Micky Van de Ven has been a revelation at Spurs
Ambrose has stated that the former Wolfsburg man has managed to bring the best out of Cristian Romero since his arrival.
The pundit told talkSPORT: “Van de Ven has impressed me more than anyone because not only has he come in and shown how good he is – he’s quick, strong, and reads the game well.
“Romero seems a different player because he’s got a partner next to him on a level with him now, he trusts him, and they’ve got that partnership built up.”
