Tottenham Hotspur supporters are increasingly worried that their poor results could lead to key players wanting out this summer transfer window, but Fabrizio Romano doesn't think Micky van de Ven is going to be one of the casualties.
Although Cristian Romero's situation with the club is more tenuous and he already did flirt with leaving Spurs last season after the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham fans are actually more worried about the future of Van de Ven, who is younger and highly coveted by the biggest clubs in the world: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool, and more are all after the Dutchman.
The latest team to be linked closely to Van de Ven is none other than Manchester United, who have been resurgent under Michael Carrick, making Tottenham's ineptitude this season now stand out evne more.
Manchester United aren't pushing for Micky van de Ven yet
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano told fans that he doesn't see Tottenham being willing to sell either Romero or Van de Ven this summer. And when it comes to Manchester United, in particular, Fab offered some more reassuring news for the worried Spurs faithful.
Per Fab, while Man United do obviously appreciate the quality of the 24-year-old Tottenham center back, the Red Devils do not have serious interest in the player at this time. Their focus is on signing midfield talent this summer and investing as much as possible there, with a new defender potentially depending on the future of Harry Maguire amidst ongoing negotiations to lower his wages on a new contract.
Now, that doesn't necessarily mean Tottenham shouldn't be worried about Man United trying to swoop for Van de Ven in the future, nor does it rule out more dangerous transfer suitors for the young superstar, like Real Madrid.
However, Fab's report is a reminder that Tottenham are not actively shopping Van de Ven around and that other big clubs in European football know that they will have to open up their check books in order to pry the prized center back away from the N17 this summer transfer window.
Tottenham fans are worried about the present with the threat of relegation looming, and they are increasingly worried about how Romero and Van de Ven feel about this club's serious lack of ambition with their body languages visibly showing frustration. But it is best to leave the worries about the future to the future itself; there is enough for Spurs supporters to be wary of now.
