Ben Jacobs has suggested that Mikey Moore wants to stay at Tottenham Hotspur amid his links with La Liga champions Real Madrid.
According to a report by Ben Jacobs on Give Me Sport, Mikey Moore is the subject of interest from Real Madrid. The reigning La Liga champions are keen on signing the 16-year-old prodigy in the summer transfer window. However, the teenage prospect is happy at Tottenham and will unlikely leave the North London club in the summer transfer window.
Who is Mikey Moore?
Mikey Moore is the latest highly-regarded Tottenham wonderkid to rise in prominence. The North London giants have produced several highly-rated prospects in the last few years, while recent reports have talked about prodigies like Han-Willhoft King, who has left the club and will likely join Manchester City soon.
As for Moore, he is a native of London and has been with Tottenham Hotspur since 2016. The Englishman has gone from strength to strength in the last eight years while already making his first-team bow for the North London outfit earlier this year. The 16-year-old has made two cameo appearances thus far for Tottenham.
Meanwhile, the England youth international has captured the attention of several high-profile clubs with his exploits in the last few years in Tottenham’s youth division. Widespread reports have linked Moore with many Premier League bigwigs in the last few years. However, his most serious suitor might be Real Madrid.
A kid in demand
Real Madrid’s interest in Mikey Moore is hardly surprising. The Merengues constantly scour the market for highly-rated prospects, with the outlook helping them create squads that ensure a smooth transition from one generation to the next. So, Moore has invariably emerged as a viable target for Real Madrid.
Recent reports have claimed that Tottenham will look to keep hold of the 16-year-old English wonderkid despite Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain’s links with him. The latest update has boosted Tottenham’s prospects, with the teenage sensation ready to remain at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid can do anything to turn Mikey Moore’s head before the summer transfer window shuts down. However, a summer departure from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is unlikely.
