According to the Daily Mail, Ten Hag is keen on pushing United officials to make an approach for Bergwijn. The Holland international has struggled for regular minutes under Antonio Conte, particularly since the arrival of Dejan Kulusevski.
Bergwijn joined Tottenham in January 2020 as one of Jose Mourinho’s first signings as Spurs boss. He had helped PSV win three Eredivisie titles in his time at the club before being snapped up by Tottenham.
The report claims that Ten Hag has made attempts to sign Bergwijn in the last three transfer windows, but Ajax were unable to match his wage demands.
Tottenham also blocked Bergwijn heading out on loan this past January, but Ten Hag may get his chance to link up with the winger this summer. It is said that Bergwijn would be available for around £20million, which could see Tottenham take a £7m hit on their initial investment.
