Tottenham's Young Talent Mikey Moore Impresses in Debut
On October 4, 2024, at Groupama Arena in Budapest, Hungary, Tottenham faced Ferencváros in the 2024-25 UEFA Europa League Phase 2 match. Tottenham secured a 2-1 victory over the home team, Ferencváros, marking their second consecutive win in the Europa League and climbing to 3rd place out of 36 teams.
In a bold move by Tottenham's head coach Engin Postecoglu, 17-year-old Mikey Moore made his full senior debut alongside Will Lancaster in the starting lineup, with captain Son Heung-min sidelined due to a hamstring injury. While Lancaster was substituted in the second half, Moore, holding the record for the youngest appearance in Tottenham's history, played the full 90 minutes as a right winger.
Moore, responsible for both flanks along with substitute Brendan Johnson, showcased an impressive performance with stats including an 80% pass success rate, 2 long-range shots, 1 chance created, 5 touches in the opponent's box, 1 successful dribble, and 5 final third entries. Defensively, he contributed with 1 successful tackle and 3 ball recoveries.
After the game, coach Postecoglu praised Moore's performance, emphasizing his exceptional display as a 17-year-old playing over 90 minutes in a European away game. Former England international Joe Cole also commended Moore, noting his confidence and likening his play to that of established modern attackers.
In an interview with Football London, Moore expressed gratitude towards his teammates for their support and acknowledged the significance of his debut, stating that it was just the beginning of a promising journey. Moore's emergence as a talented young winger could potentially impact the future of upcoming talents like Kang Min-hyuk, set to join Tottenham in January next year.
