Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly decided to retain the services of Netherlands international Steven Bergwijn.

While the winger has been provided with 14 appearances in all competitions this season, just four starts have come in the Premier League.

That has led to interest from elsewhere, including from Ajax who have been keen to agree a permanent deal with their compatriots in North London.

However, according to journalist Mike Verweij, Spurs head coach Antonio Conte has insisted that he wishes to retain the services of the 24-year-old.

Ajax are also said to be unwilling to meet Bergwijn's valuation of €25m (£20.88m), a fee which inevitably increased on the back of the player's performance against Leicester City earlier this month.

Bergwijn scored two goals in added-on time to earn his team an extraordinary 3-2 triumph at the home of the Foxes. body check tags ::
