James Maddison is backing Micky van de Ven for a successful career with Tottenham.
The midfielder discusses his Spurs teammate with Viaplay after Tuesday's defeat to Manchester City.
He said: First of all, he's a great guy, a nice person. I get along very well with him, he is a good friend of mine.
He is also a fantastic footballer," Maddison continued. There's no doubt about that. Especially for how young he is, his lack of experience before the season shocked and surprised me a bit. His skills, his guts, and so on. He is a top player."
Maddison expects a lot from Van de Ven at Tottenham in the coming years: This is a player that fans can enjoy for a long time."
