Spurs are reportedly set to announce the £30 million signing of the Brazilian play-maker in the coming days. Rene Meulensteen is confident that Willian could be the most successful signing for Tottenham, if they can secure the midfielder this summer.
He earlier worked with the player in Russia, believes that Meulensteen will be a huge hit in north London. He told Sky Sports News: “I think he is going to be a major trump card for Spurs if they can get the deal through because he is a player who can play in different positions.”
“He’s very creative, he can take a man on, he can beat a player and he can score a goal. I thought he was an absolute delight to work with.”
He continued: “I don’t know what’s happening there [with Bale] but you can’t compare the two.He’s a completely different player.”
