Michel Vorm is convinced that one Tottenham star, who is on the radar of some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League, is going to remain at Spurs for a long time.Tottenham’s poor start to the season has already seen the media drum up talk of a crisis at the North London club, especially after the club’s significant transfer outlay in the summer.Some pundits are already questioning if Roberto De Zerbi’s position is under threat, even though the Italian kept Spurs in the Premier League just a few months ago.Over the last week, there have even been suggestions that some of the Lilywhites’ best players could be looking to jump ship in January.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramMichel Vorm claims Micky van de Ven is committed to Tottenham projectReports indicate that Liverpool and Man United are both looking to poach Micky van de Ven after Tottenham’s poor start to the season.However, former Spurs goalkeeper Michel Vorm is convinced the pacy centre-back is going to be an important player for the club well into his future, especially after he expressed his commitment by signing a new contract in the summer.When asked about his compatriot’s journey at Tottenham, Vorm told the club’s official website: “I spoke with him, I think, just after he signed for Tottenham. The thing is, he came from Germany, a totally different league, so the question was could he do the same here that he did in the Bundesliga, especially intensity-wise? He’s very fast, so he had to adapt, he’s overcome a couple of injuries and look at him now. Wow. He’s a machine.“I think also with his age and his leadership on the pitch, I think he’s going to be a very, very important player for Tottenham, but also for the national team of Holland. He’s signed a new deal, he’s committed to the club, and this is what you need. Both parties made a real statement – and he deserved it. For us, it’s brilliant.”Pete O’Rourke believes Van de Ven can be tempted away from SpursTransfer market expert Pete O’Rourke insisted just a couple of days ago that despite his new contract in the summer, Van de Ven is at the top of United’s wishlist.The journalist believes the Tottenham captain could be tempted to jump ship in January if De Zerbi’s men do not climb up the Premier League table.O’Rourke said: “Man United want defenders and there aren’t many better options out there than Van de Ven. He ticks so many boxes for them; he’s got plenty of Premier League experience, he’s still only young, he can play on that left-hand side of the defence, and importantly, he’s rapid.“Man United have major issues with the pace in their defence when you look at players like Maguire, De Ligt, Martinez. Van de Ven would bring that in spades. So from what I’m told, he is right at the top of their list of targets and he is seen as the ideal addition for when Carrick wants to strengthen at the back.“The key will be if Tottenham continue to struggle, because if they finish down the bottom of the table again, it’s going to be very hard to keep hold of players like Van de Ven. He decided to stay this season, but there is every chance he could be tempted away, so Man United have to be ready to make a move.”READ MORE: Tottenham squad receive ‘massive moral boost’ thanks to Dejan Kulusevski training returnThe post 'I spoke with him' - Michel Vorm insists senior Tottenham star is 'committed to the club' appeared first on Spurs Web.
