TOTTENHAM fans are licking their lips at the prospect of welcoming wonderkid Lucas Bergvall to the club.
Spurs beat Barcelona to the Djurgarden midfielder on Deadline Day as they agreed an £8.5million deal plus add-ons.
Bergvall is spending the rest of this season at Djurgarden, before he officially links up with Tottenham on July 1.
And the playmaker already has Spurs fans in awe of his talent after scoring a stunner against United Nordic.
Bergvall skipped past six defenders on a magical solo run before cooly slotting past the keeper, leaving fans stunned.
One said: “That’s just ridiculous.”

Another added: “Top talent. They got him for peanuts.”
Bergvall scored twice in the game to help Djurgarden to a 5-0 win.
Spurs beat off interest from Aston Villa or Wolves to sign the teenage sensation as well as Barcelona.
And Bergvall was forced to hit back at claims that he used Barca to get a better deal out of Tottenham.

Ex-Barca scout Bojan Krkic snr, dad of the former Stoke star of the same name, also questioned Bergvall’s ambition.
But Bergvall, 18, said: “They can say what they want. I know what the truth is.”
Krkic snr claimed Bergvall’s girlfriend and mum steered him towards Spurs and his camp played Barca along to improve Tottenham’s offer.
Krkic said: “Where is the player’s ambition? Barca would be the opportunity of his life right now.”
When asked if the smears could be bitterness on Barcelona’s part, Bergvall said: “That could be the case, absolutely.
“There was a lot of speculation, but it’s nice that everything has settled down and that I can focus only on Djurgarden.”
