Mikey Moore delivers bold statement of intent for his Tottenham Hotspur future
Mikey Moore has made known his extraordinary objectives for his Tottenham career and if there is one thing he does not lack, it is confidence.
Many Tottenham Hotspur supporters were disappointed to see Mikey Moore sent out on loan. The 18-year-old only made 10 Premier League appearances last season, so there was anticipation about how he could perform if he were to get more minutes under his belt.
It was thought that Borussia Dortmund were interested in Moore before he made the move to Scotland. A permanent transfer would not have gone down well at Tottenham, but a loan to a team as good as Dortmund would have been a great learning experience for the young talent.
As things went, he signed on loan for Rangers. The Scottish Premiership may provide Moore with as high a level of opposition as the Bundesliga would have, but he still has the chance to play in the Champions League.
The Glasgow outfit are just one tie away from qualifying for Europe’s biggest competition, but it will not be easy, as they are up against Club Brugge.
Mikey Moore states his ambitious career target at Tottenham
Domestically, Moore has already got off to a good start. He played just under 70 minutes of Rangers’ League Cup tie against Alloa Athletic on Saturday and registered an assist in the process.
Alloa are only a third-tier club, but Moore will have plenty of time to prove his worth, including against Celtic at the end of the month.
The winger believes this is just his starting point, as he will attempt to keep improving throughout his career. He made a bombshell statement on Sky Sports, which shows the level he is reaching for.
Moore said: “I want to be one of the best players in the world, hopefully.”
He added: “I want to go out and play in the biggest competitions. It’s massive for me. I’ve signed a new contract at Spurs, but at the minute I’m focused on playing here [Rangers], so I’m just buzzing to go and play some massive games for this football club.”
What will the future hold for Mikey Moore?
The likes of Celtic and Rangers prefer to make their loan signings permanent, but it is highly unlikely Moore will stay in Scotland permanently.
He will gain valuable experience playing for a team that held Spurs to a draw in the Europa League last season, but this will be to prepare him for his return to Tottenham.
Currently, Spurs lack options on the left wing and Moore might actually have benefitted from remaining at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
However, he will also benefit from being able to play on a weekly basis and this could be a key stepping stone if he is to reach his ultimate goal and join football’s elite players.
