£28m player who Tottenham want to sign now sends threatening message to Micky van de Ven on Instagram

Reported Tottenham Hotspur target Perr Schuurs has sent a message to new Spurs defender Micky van de Ven on Instagram.

Van de Ven made his debut for Tottenham yesterday as Ange Postecoglou’s men were held to a 2-2 draw at Brentford.

The Dutchman officially completed a switch to Spurs on Monday and after missing out on the trip to Barcelona on Tuesday, it seemed likely the game against Brentford may come too soon for Van de Ven.

But Postecoglou gave the former Wolfsburg defender the nod and it’s fair to say he impressed as he settled into the game at the Gtech Community Stadium.

The 22-year-old was forced to play with two defensive partners on the day after Cristian Romero was replaced by Davinson Sanchez due to a head injury.

Spurs are likely to target another central defender before the window closes and Perr Schuurs is reportedly of interest.

And the Torino man took to Instagram after yesterday’s game to praise Van de Ven.

Schuurs sends message to Van de Ven

Van de Ven took to social media after making his Spurs debut and wrote: “First Premier League minutes felt magical.

“We wanted more but will go again next week. Thanks or travelling fans, see you at home next week.”

And Schuurs replied with a fire emoji beneath the new Spurs defender’s post.

Fabrizio Romano claimed just last week that Tottenham have held internal discussions over signing Schuurs this summer.

Of course, Tottenham will need to move some players out the door first, with the likes of Davinson Sanchez and Japhet Tanganga both facing uncertain futures.

But Schuurs would be a brilliant option to come in and compete with Romero and Van de Ven.

Harry Kane sends message to Tottenham chief Daniel Levy after “exhausting” transfer
Harry Kane was unveiled as a Bayern Munich player on Sunday and spoke about Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, who reluctantly brokered his £100million transfer to the German giants

Harry Kane has wished Daniel Levy “all the best” after completing what was described as an “exhausting” transfer to Bayern Munich.

The England captain completed his transfer to the German giants on Saturday in a deal which could be worth in excess of £100million, having signed a four-year contract that runs until 2027. Tottenham chairman Levy did his best to keep Kane, 30, at Spurs for at least one more season but couldn’t stop the striker from departing, unlike in 2021.

Two years ago, Levy refused to sell Kane to Manchester City and the high-profile episode damaged the pair’s relationship. This time around, the Tottenham chief was forced to broker a deal with Bayern, not willing to sell Kane to a Premier League rival such as Manchester United or risk losing him for free when his contract was due to expire next summer.

“It was a busy couple of days, a busy week,” the 30-year-old explained during his unveiling press conference on Sunday, taking the famous No.9 shirt. “This is my first transfer; it was an up and down experience for sure but I’m happy to be here now. I wish Tottenham all the best, Daniel Levy all the best, but my focus is here now and trying to help this team.”

Sitting alongside Kane was Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen, who admitted: “It was exhausting negotiations. Daniel Levy is nice, but he also knows what he wants. In the end, both parties had a good feeling.”

The now former Spurs hero made his debut for the Bundesliga champions on Saturday less than 11 hours after his transfer had been announced. Kane hoped to win the first trophy of his career but Bayern were stunned by RB Leipzig 3-0 in their own backyard, with their star signing coming on as a substitute.

Kane hopes to have won multiple trophies by the end of the 2023-24 season, including the Champions League. Next year’s final will notably be held at Wembley, where England’s all-time record goalscorer struts his stuff at international level and for a period represented Spurs while their new stadium was under construction.

“It is still quite a way away but for it to be at Wembley is exciting,” Kane added. “I joined this club to have a good chance of winning the Champions League but for it to be at Wembley is amazing. Hopefully we can achieve that.”

The new top has been claimed to “build on more than a century of tradition” and is a fresh update to the iconic kit that gave Spurs the nickname, the Lilywhites. There’s a subtle but distinct linework pattern running through the new shirt that’s said to have been inspired by “the borough’s vibrant music scene and streetwear culture of the borough of Tottenham”

Liverpool vs. Chelsea: Live Player Ratings for Both Teams

Liverpool and Chelsea battled it out at Anfield in what was as close to a title decider as could be, with the Reds top of the table by five points with just three games remaining before the start of play.

At half-time, the scoreline was 0-1, with the away side ahead right on the stroke of half-time. Demba Ba scored the goal after a slip from Steven Gerrard in his own half of the pitch. Liverpool attacked for the entirety of the second half, but another injury time goal from Willian wrapped up the scoring for a 2-0 Chelsea win.
