Harry Kane boosting Tottenham’s chances of signing ‘exceptional’ youngster in January

The 30-year-old has eight goals in his first seven league games for the Bavarian giants, so despite his impressive record, he cannot pass Kane in the standings.

Tel’s performance this season has been deemed “exceptional,” according to Arsenal veteran Thierry Henry, who recently summoned Tel up to his France Under-21 ranks. “I think you’ve been following what he’s been doing,” he replied. “It is amazing to have been involved in eight goals while just making one cup start.

“Starting games for Bayern is difficult, but it’s equally difficult to come on as a substitute ahead of other star players like Thomas Muller. In the short minutes he has, Mathys frequently enters before him and makes a difference.

’NO-ONE KNEW ABOUT HIM’: SKY PUNDIT WOWED BY ‘OUTSTANDING’ FIND BY TOTTENHAM

Clinton Morrison has stated that Destiny Udogie has been ‘outstanding’ for Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur this season.

The 20-year-old joined Tottenham last summer from Udinese, but was loaned straight back to the Italian club.

Due to this, the all-action left defender missed the early part of the current Premier League campaign; Morrison said that ‘no-one knew about him’ in an interview with Soccer Saturday on Sky Sports (14/10/23 at 2:35 pm).

Destiny Udogie has always been a high talent emerging in Italy, so how much football you watch and follow will determine whether or not people are aware of him.

One thing is for certain, though: The recently-captured Italian star’s name is now in much-brighter lights thanks to his appearance in the Premier League.

He is thus receiving praise for his efforts as Ange Postecoglou’s team leads the Premier League standings.

Destiny Udogie’s performances

“Another player I would mention who has been outstanding is Udogie, the left-back,” said Morrison.

“No-one knew about Udogie. That was a problem position for Tottenham and he has come in, at a young age, and done well.”

In the hopes that he would shine and emerge as one of the top players in the Premier League, the former Fulham wonderkid signed with Spurs in 2019.

But that hasn’t been the case; instead, injuries have only halted his development as he works to recover from his most recent injury setback.

When he has returned in the past, he has essentially earned his spot in the starting XI, but not this time since Udogie hasn’t claimed it as his own.
