Bergvall only arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in 2024 from Djurgarden for a fee of £8.5m, but his impact was immediate. He capped off a fine debut campaign by winning the club's Player of the Year award and helping them secure the 2025 Europa League title, ending a 17-year trophy drought for the club.
