If pre-season is anything to go by, plenty of youngsters will be making a splash this season
By Ben McAleer for WhoScored
Tottenham acted quickly last summer to sign Destiny Udogie, one of the finest young talents in Italy. The youngster spent last season back on loan with Udinese, where the regular gametime did him the world of good. Spurs have an abundance of full-backs but, if pre-season is anything to go by, the 20-year-old will be their first choice left-back under Ange Postecoglou. Udogie is excited by that prospect. Speaking earlier this summer, he said of his manager: “I like his idea of football. He wants to play with the ball. It’s not like I defend and counterattack. I want to have the ball.”
