'Advanced' - Ben Jacobs provides an update on Mikey Moore's future at Tottenham
Just as Tottenham fans are sweating over the future of Mikey Moore amid reports of transfer interest in the teenager, Ben Jacobs has now assuaged the fears of the supporters by revealing the winger’s stance on his future.
While the Tottenham supporters may have not seen as much of Mikey Moore in the second half of the campaign as they would have wanted, there is little doubt at Hotspur Way that the 17-year-old is a generational talent.
There is excitement about what he can achieve next season, but over recent weeks, some outlets have suggested that Moore has spoken to Borussia Dortmund over a summer transfer.
That coupled with news that Moore has changed his representation to Unique Sports Group left Spurs supporters nervous, but the North London club are not expected to let their young starlet go without a fight.
Ben Jacobs provides an update on Mikey Moore’s future
Last week, it was reported that Tottenham had begun talks with Moore over a new contract as the Lilywhites try hard to ward off the interest in their academy graduate.
Jacobs has now suggested that Spurs are in no real danger of losing the winger and the Lilywhites have made significant progress in their efforts to tie him down to a new contract.
The journalist told GiveMeSport: “Mikey Moore will stay and extend, and that’s my understanding. I don’t know exactly when it’s going to be done, but talks have been very positive and can be referred to as advanced.
“And obviously we know Tottenham rate Mikey Moore extremely highly, so that one should be very smooth. I don’t think the player would be looking elsewhere anyway, very happy at Tottenham, regardless of the Ange situation.”
Senior Tottenham players waiting on the club’s decision on Ange Postecoglou
While the Tottenham managerial situation might not be significant in dictating Moore’s future as per this update by Jacobs, that is not the case with other senior members of the squad.
It has been reported over recent days that Cristian Romero will do everything in his power to leave Tottenham if Postecoglou is sacked.
It has also been claimed that Rodrigo Bentancur is waiting for Spurs’ decision on Postecoglou before greenlighting a new contract at the club.
