Tottenham Hotspur signed Archie Gray from Leeds United in the summer transfer window in a deal worth £30 million.
Archie Gray has not had ample game time at Tottenham Hotspur so far, and he has been linked with a loan exit ahead of the January transfer window.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, the young midfielder has decided that he does not want to leave the North London club midway through the season and that he will fight for his place in the starting lineup.
It will be interesting to see if Gray can convince Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou to give him an extended run in the side. There is no doubt that he is a talented player with huge potential. He was a star for Leeds United in the EFL Championship.
Gray is capable of operating as a central midfielder as well as a full-back. His versatility will be an added bonus for any club that manages to secure his signature. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham is ready to keep him at the club until the end of the season.
Sending him out on loan could be beneficial to the player. He needs to play regularly in order to continue his development. Sitting on the bench at North London club will be detrimental to his growth. Recent reports have claimed that Spurs have been anticipating bids for Archie Gray.
Tottenham must nurture Gray properly
Archie Gray is highly rated across the country, and he is expected to develop into a top-class player in the near future. Tottenham will have to handle his development carefully. They cannot afford to keep him on the bench and affect his growth as a player negatively.
It will be interesting to see if any club is looking to sign the player on loan when the transfer window reopens in January. If an attractive project is presented ahead of him, the midfielder might have a change of heart.
Spurs paid £30 million for the midfielder, and they will hope that he can establish himself as a star for them in the future. Tottenham must groom him properly and provide him with ample first-team opportunities if he does not secure an exit in January on loan.
