💬 BARBER: Second Spurs bid rejected Paul Barber has revealed that a second offer from Spurs for Jan Paul van Hecke has been rejected, and other clubs are also interested in the Dutch defender: “There’s always going to be a lot of interest in our best players, and certainly in the case of Jan Paul. “We’ve been very clear that that interest has been ongoing for a while, it’s coming from multiple sources. “Yes, we have rejected a bid from Tottenham over the last week or so, in fact, two bids. “From that point of view, it has to be right for us as well as the player. “We have to be in a position to make the best trades to suit our model and also to make sure that we’re supporting Fabian [Hurzeler], because he’s got another big season ahead of him. “He’s had two seasons in the Premier League, he’s finished eighth on both occasions, this time we’ve been fortunate enough to qualify for a European competition. “We want to go as deep in that competition as we can, while also doing well in the Premier League. “To do that, we need to make sure Fabian’s got the best possible squad and we’ve got the right balance between the young players that typically we like to bring in and develop, and the more experienced players like Pascal Gross and others, who can actually help us progress in all of the competitions that we’re in. “As always, it’s a balancing act, and hopefully this summer we can work hard to pull it off again.”
