Tottenham Hotspur are close to finalising the signing of Brighton & Hove Albion’s Dutch defender Jan Paul van Hecke.
Van Hecke featured in the Netherlands’ first game of World Cup 2026, a dramatic 2-2 draw with Japan at AT&T Stadium, amid growing speculation about his future. After six seasons on the books at Brighton, the 26-year-old is reportedly on the cusp of joining Spurs.
