Tottenham fans will probably feel pretty happy with this, with Bergwijn looking a fine signing for a very reasonable transfer fee.

Jose Mourinho inherited a struggling squad in need of an overhaul when he replaced Mauricio Pochettino earlier this season, and it looks like he’s got off to a solid start in the transfer market.
