According to Football.London’s Alasdair Gold, Tottenham wonderkid Mikey Moore will be handed plenty of opportunities to impress during pre-season.
Even though Moore is only 16 years of age, there is already plenty of excitement at Hotspur Way about the youngster’s potential, with the winger dominating the Under-18 Premier League last season.
The youngster made his senior bow for Tottenham towards the end of the 2023-24 season, becoming the youngest player to represent the club in Premier League history.
Moore also played a starring role for England’s Under-17s in the UEFA U-17 Euros this summer, proving the driving force behind their march to the quarterfinal, where they lost to Italy on penalties.
The teenager is quite highly sought after, with Borussia Dortmund, Manchester City and Manchester United all thought to have shown keen interest in luring him away from Hotpsur Way (Football Insider).
Gold has now explained that the attacking midfielder will be ‘heavily involved’ in Tottenham’s pre-season friendlies over the next couple of months.
He reveals that Ange Postecoglou has plenty of belief in Moore and wants to give him every chance to impress in the upcoming matches ahead of the new campaign.
The journalist adds that the Spurs academy starlet is currently happy at the club and Tottenham hope that handing him minutes would be enough to convince him to snub any potential suitors.
Gold points out that while Moore has technically agreed his first professional contract with the Lilywhites, he will not be allowed to sign it until his 17th birthday on August 11, meaning that his future is not entirely locked down at the minute.

Ange’s decision to give Moore minutes last season was likely intended to convince the youngster to sign a professional contract at Hotspur Way and one would expect Tottenham to do the same in pre-season as they simply cannot afford to lose a generational talent like the 16-year-old.
