Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Mikey Moore has been linked with a move to Real Madrid in recent weeks, with Paris Saint-Germain also keen.
Mikey Moore is highly rated in English football, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. According to a report by Graeme Bailey on HITC, Real Madrid are keen on the 16-year-old Tottenham wonderkid, and they could face competition from Paris Saint-Germain as well.
However, Tottenham are reasonably confident of keeping him at the club despite interest from the European heavyweights. Manchester City and Manchester United have been keen on signing him as well.
Moore is expected to develop into an important first-team player for Tottenham in the coming seasons, and they will not want to lose a player of his potential anytime soon. It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid decide to test Tottenham’s resolve with an offer.
The 16-year-old is expected to be given first-team opportunities in the upcoming season, and he will look to continue his development with first-team football at the London club. Real Madrid might not be able to provide him with that platform. So, staying at the English club would be ideal for him.
Mikey Moore should stay at Spurs
Moore should focus on his development for now. If the 16-year-old manages to fulfil his tremendous potential, there will be plenty of opportunities for him to join a top club in the near future.
Tottenham are looking to put together formidable squad for the future, and they need to hold on to their best young talents. Spurs cannot afford to lose a prodigious young player like Moore who could be a key player for them with the right guidance.
Real Madrid are yet to follow up on their interest with an official proposal to sign the 16-year-old. It will be interesting to see how the player reacts if there is a concrete proposal ahead of him. Los Blancos are widely regarded as the biggest club in the world, and the opportunity to join them can be hard to turn down for any player. It will certainly be an enticing prospect if there is a proposal from Real Madrid on the table.
