Johan Lange and his staff have been quite busy on deadline day, with Tottenham Hotspur closing in on another signing, although for their youth squad.
Tottenham have already agreed to recruit Mathys Tel, a Bayern Munich forward who will undoubtedly improve Ange Postecoglou’s attacking options.
Spurs recently approved a loan deal for Yang Min-hyeok to join Queens Park Rangers, implying that more firepower would be arriving.
Min-hyeok has been consistently making up numbers on the bench as a result of N17’s injury crisis.
However, the Spurs’ major difficulty has been defense, as multiple first-team starters have been absent due to injuries.
And it appears that Tottenham are on the verge of signing a Liverpool player who could help in the future.
Tottenham agree to recruit Luca Furnell-Gill from Liverpool.
Tottenham have reached an agreement to recruit Liverpool defender Luca Furnell-Gill, according to writer Dan Kilpatrick of Standard Sport.
The 18-year-old centre-back has made five appearances for Liverpool in the under-18 Premier League but has yet to make the senior squad.
Furnell-Gill is expected to increase Spurs’ youth numbers and might join the club in a double deal with Manchester City youngster Daniel Batty.
Kilpatrick stated unequivocally that neither signing will be considered for Postecoglou’s first-team squad this season, a reassuring remark for any Tottenham fan concerned that the signing would halt Spurs’ hunt for a new centre-back after recruiting Kevin Danso.
Luca Furnell-Gill was granted a lengthy ban for unsavoury elbow in a junior game.
Tottenham fans may be interested to know that Furnell-Gill received a lengthy ban last year for an unsavoury incident during an under-18s match.
According to the Mirror, the child got into a fight with Manchester United youngster Ethan Wheatley, elbowing him and throwing a blow.
Liverpool’s academy director eventually apologised to United on Furnell-Gill’s behalf, as he regretted his actions.
In any case, it will be a new beginning for the promising kid at Spurs, which has been an exciting destination for young players during the Postecoglou era.
If you’re good enough, you’ll get an opportunity at Tottenham right now, which Mikey Moore is taking advantage of.
