Tottenham defender Cristian Romero is full of praise for Micky van de Ven.

Van de Ven has impressed alongside Romero this season - his first in England.

Romero told The Sun: “In this moment, Micky is one of the best central defenders in the Premier League.

“But marketing plays a big part in how people see you here — that's why he is not spoken about enough.

“He doesn't get any publicity and is not built up at all.

“But he's doing so well and we hope that he can continue — I am so happy for him.

“He's young, hungry and wants to get to the next level. He has a great career ahead."
