It’s no secret that Tottenham need to sign a quality goalkeeper in the summer, with Bert Verbruggen among their targets.
The 23-year-old Dutch international has impressed since joining Brighton and Verbruggen could be a great addition for Tottenham. However, clubs such as Bayern Munich are also interested in the player.
If the Dutch champions are serious about him, it would be reasonable to assume that the Dutch goalkeeper would be attracted to the idea of joining the German champions. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham will be able to convince the player to join him instead.

Spurs need Verbruggen
Guglielmo Vicario has been inconsistent since joining the London club and has been linked with a return to Italy. Antonin Kinski had a disappointing performance against Atlético Madrid in the UEFA Champions League, finding it difficult to convert into chances. Tottenham cannot trust him as their first-choice goalkeeper next season. They need a more reliable option and the Dutch international would be ideal.
At 23 years old, he is at the peak of his career and now is the perfect time to take on new challenges and join a bigger club. Tottenham could offer him a platform to compete in Europe in the future and fight for trophies. Verbruggen is also rumored to be linked with Chelsea.
