HITC have now relayed what various experts have said about Antonio Nusa, with many pundits convinced that the Tottenham target will evolve into one of the best players in the world over the coming years.
While Nusa is yet to make a mark on the biggest stage and his goal and assist numbers are nothing to write home about, there is plenty of excitement in Belgian football as well as in his native Norway about the youngster.
The 18-year-old is the kind of player who gets fans off their sets, with his terrific balance and close control making him a nightmare to defend against.
If some reports over the last 24 hours are to be believed, Tottenham are now edging closer to striking a deal for the winger, having moved into pole position after blowing some of their competitors out of the water (Football Insider).
Huge expectations are being placed on Antonio Nusa
If Spurs fans are already excited about the club’s pursuit of Nusa, they will get even giddier when they hear what former Netherlands international Ruud Vormer has said about the youngster.
According to HITC, the pundit confidently predicted to Het Laaste Nieuws: “Just write this down; Antonio Nusa. He will later play at the biggest clubs in the world. Real Madrid, (Manchester) City. Remember my words.”
Meanwhile, former Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, who is the teenager’s teammate at Brugge, has also previously waxed lyrical about the Spurs target.
The 35-year-old said about Nusa last year: “He has a bright future ahead of him. In training, you can see that he has an incredible amount of talent.
“We must not forget that he is only 17 years old. But he has a good head on his shoulders. He remained calm under the circumstances here, so that is already positive.”

Mignolet’s last point about Nusa having a ‘good head on his shoulders’ is a crucial one as a player’s character is arguably just as important as their talent when it comes to succeeding at the highest level.
We also know that Postecoglou puts a lot of weight on people’s personalities as he wants players who are willing to put the team first and are ready to take instructions on board.
