Tottenham Hotspur’s academy may be about to embark on something of a golden generation.
In fact, Tottenham has a plethora of young, gifted players coming through that might form the team’s backbone for years to come.
Potential stars include players like Alfie Devine, Jamie Donley, and Alfie Dorrington. However, one guy who is even younger than those three is also gaining attention.
By all accounts, 16-year-old Mickey Moore is a gifted player, and Charlie Eccleshare, in an interview with The View From The Lane Podcast, provided some insight into the player’s aptitude.
The journalist says that Moore is a very exciting player and he says that someone recently spoke to him about Moore and compared him to Adel Taarabt.

The journalist spoke about the young teenager.
“Another one is Mikey Moore, very skillful, someone was saying to me that he’s a bit like Taarabt in some ways, the good stuff, the ability he has in training to do mad skills and things like that. An exciting player to keep an eye on as well Mikey,” Eccleshare said.
Exciting
Adel Taarabt didn’t exactly have the best career at Tottenham, but make no mistake about it, he’s one of the most naturally talented players Spurs have had in recent years.
