Roberto De Zerbi has 'confidence' one player will become 'one of the best' at Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi has urged patience with £85 million signing Mateus Fernandes, who is still finding his feet and has yet to hit the ground running.

Tottenham Hotspur ’s Mateus Fernandes was among 15 Spurs players who travelled to represent their countries during the international break. The midfielder was not called up to the Portuguese senior team by Jorge Jesus but instead represented the U21s, where he impressed by providing an assist in a 4-0 win over Gibraltar .

It was not just the assist that stood out, but Fernandes’ overall display, which was top class. Tottenham will no doubt be hoping to see more of that in north London.
