It has been found that even Mickey van der Penn wants to leave Tottenham.
The English Football Insider said on the 16th (Korea time) "Fan der Ben wants to leave Tottenham this summer if Real Madrid suggests it. This is what Mick Brown, a former senior scout for Manchester United and Blackburn Rovers, revealed. Real's scouts are keeping a close eye on Van der Penn's growth this season," he reported.
Football Insider comes as Van der Penn's agent, 23, has been touting his performance, suggesting the possibility of leaving Tottenham in the near future. Recently, Van der Penn's agent said, "' Van der Penn has the ability to play for a big club like Real Madrid one day. In addition, the Real defence needs players with the same talents as Van der Penn," he said.
Former Scout Brown said `Pander Penn's agent is strongly pushing for a Real transfer. Real want a centre-back and are looking at a number of options. There are a lot of centre-back players in the Premier League, and we've talked about Christian Romero before. With scouts coming to Tottenham's game to look, there's no doubt Van der Penn is on Real's radar," he said.
He then added "If Real were to try to sign Van der Penn, he would want to leave. This is because it is always difficult for players to refuse to transfer to Real. Especially after he had a tough season. "Considering the injury, I'm not sure if Van der Penn will be Real's first choice, but we have to wait and see at the moment."
Born in 2001, centre-back Van Der Penn moved to Tottenham last season. Landed in the Premier League after showing good potential at Wolfsburg. As soon as he made his debut, he showed great defense with Romero and was crowned Tottenham Player of the Year. It was a season that properly proved its ability to be recognized as a next-generation center back.
However, he is suffering from a chronic hamstring injury this season. He didn't play half as much as he did last season. Van der Penn's glass-bodied temperament is also affecting Tottenham's serious defense. He is not a 100% reliable player because he has a glass body, but he is sure of his skills. He has good physical conditions, very fast feet, and even has build-up capabilities. He is also a center back with scoring ability.
It is also true that Real is looking for a center back. David Alaba and Antonio Rudiger are getting older, and Eder Militão has his cruciate ligament ruptured in a row, so it is unknown what his performance will be. Raul Asensio is currently facing criminal charges and is at the center of controversy. Rumors have continued that Real wants to recruit a new center back as it has suffered from frequent injuries to center backs this season.
