Jan Paul van Heck has been named Player of the Week in the Premier League by Flashscore after scoring 9.3 for his performance in Tottenham's 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace.
This result marked Tottenham's third consecutive win in the league. The Dutch defender played a crucial role in the success, demonstrating solid defensive skills while also actively participating in attack build-up.
The match notably changed after Jean-Philippe Mateta's red card. Crystal Palace were reduced to ten men early in the game, giving Tottenham the opportunity to control the flow of the match and dominate possession.
Van Heck took full advantage of this and became a key figure in ball distribution. The defender made three key passes and showcased impressive stats in ball handling.
According to Flashscore, Van Heck completed 146 accurate passes—more than any other player on the pitch. He also recorded 160 touches and 24 forward advances with the ball, placing him at the top in both categories for the match.
It was this combination of reliable defending and active involvement in attacking play that allowed the defender to receive a score of 9.3 and earn the title of Player of the Week in the Premier League.
Tottenham continue to build momentum and will look to extend their winning streak in their next fixture. On Saturday, the team travels to Leeds, aiming for a fourth consecutive victory in the league.
