Djurgarden chief Andersson reveals planned Spurs visit; potential loan additions

Djurgården IF's sporting director Bosse Andersson has confirmed he's due to visit Tottenham.

The two clubs are strengthening ties after DIF's agreed sale of Lucas Bergvall to Spurs.

"We are going there to meet Tottenham, and it is about some values. We will meet and get an insight into their business. We will be there Friday-Saturday and then home Sunday morning for the match against Gothenburg," Andersson told Fotbollskanalen

"We will be at their training facility and get an insight into their operations, as well as have dinner on Friday evening. Then we will be at the stadium on Saturday and watch their game against Crystal Palace."

Andersson was also asked what a collaboration between the two clubs could mean concretely, and whether it could include loan players.

"I don't rule it out (loan), but it will be very much connected to what it can mean on the pitch. You have to focus on what it can enrich and do as a club, both our players and leaders can get inspiration from their activities.

"Sweden is an important market for Tottenham, and they know that there are many Swedes who have been cheering for Tottenham since the Tipsextra era in the 1970s."
