Bergvall set a youth record at Tottenham
Swedish midfielder Lukas Bergvall is attracting attention with his talent at England's Tottenham club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He was tracked by the OptaJoe statistical company’s monitoring system. In the match against West Ham, Bergvall scored a goal and provided an assist.
This match corresponded to the fourth round of the English championship, at which time the player was 19 years and 223 days old. He is the youngest player to achieve such a result at the Spurs team at this age, and this record had not been updated since 1992.
The previous record belonged to Nicky Barmby, who scored a goal and provided an assist in a single game at the age of 18 years and 321 days. He played against Nottingham Forest at that time.
Later, Barmby participated in the 1996 European Championship with the England national team and played for several major clubs such as Liverpool. Lukas Bergvall transferred to Tottenham from Sweden’s Djurgården club for 20 million euros a year ago.
Currently, his market value is estimated at 39 million euros. Bergvall is expected to soon become an important player for the team.
