Story byTottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion star Jan Paul van Hecke reach agreement over personal termsSportsViewTue, June 16, 2026 at 1:20 PM UTC·

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly reached an agreement over personal terms with Brighton & Hove Albion centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium club want to strengthen defensively and Spurs manager Roberto De Zerbi is eyeing a reunion with Van Hecke.

The 26-year-old Netherlands international is currently impressing at the World Cup and he started their 2-2 draw against Japan at the weekend.

Scouts from clubs across Europe will be running the rule over Van Hecke, but he wants to join Tottenham.

Interest from other clubs in the defender has reportedly cooled because of the belief he will join Spurs.

While Tottenham and Van Hecke have reached an agreement on a contract, the two clubs have to strike a deal over a transfer fee.

Brighton have already knocked back two bids from the Lilywhites for the Dutchman but further talks are expected between both clubs.

Spurs are set to sell Argentine centre-back Cristian Romero and will need a quality replacement.

Van Hecke fits the bill having proven himself in the Premier League and under De Zerbi, and both could be working together again in the coming weeks.

Tottenham have already added defensive duo Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi to their ranks for free, and more quality additions are on the cards.

The North London club could do with a major squad rebuild this summer after narrowly missing out on Premier League relegation last season.

They want to sign a midfielder and left winger and have resurrected interest in Savinho after the Brazilian winger’s proposed move from Manchester City fell through last summer.

Newcastle United’s Sandro Tonali is on their radar, but the Magpies want £100 million for the Italian.

The likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City are also in the race to sign him.
