Spurs 16-year-old could follow in Mikey Moore’s footsteps – 12 goals already this season
One youngster in Tottenham’s Under-18s set-up is posting ridiculous numbers at the start of the season. Could Spurs have yet another Mikey Moore on their hands?
Tottenham’s golden generation of youngsters?
Some outstanding young academy graduates at Spurs are now knocking on the first-team door at the moment.
The one who has hit the limelight this season is Mikey Moore, who has looked unfazed when he has got opportunities for the senior side.
There are also big hopes for the likes of Will Lankshear, Ashley Phillips Jamie Donley, Alfie Devine and others, with many of them having trained regularly with the first team.
16-year-old now turning a lot of heads
There is now another name that Spurs fans have to watch out for, with 16-year-old Luca Williams-Barnett hitting the spotlight.
The teenager has been one of the standout players in the Under-18 Premier League so far this season, with the attacking midfielder regularly creating and finishing off chances.
The versatile youngster already has 10 goal contributions (eight goals and two assists) so far in just seven league games and many of his strikes have come against decent opposition.
Ange Postecoglou might want a closer look
Williams-Barnett’s record is phenomenal considering he is essentially playing a couple of years above his age group at the moment.
If he keeps up this form, he will undoubtedly be called up to train with the senior squad sooner rather than later as Posetecoglou will want to take a closer look at the attacking midfielder.
