Tottenham Hotspur have already made their first signing of the summer transfer window, and it is a move that looks to have Teddy Sheringham’s seal of approval.
Teddy Sheringham expects big things from Archie Gray
Snapping up one of the brightest young English talents in the football league, Spurs have made a shrewd signing in Archie Gray and he’s a player Sheringham is excited to see him play.
The former Tottenham striker told Online Poker: “It’s a big money signing, that’s for sure. Having said that, I’m sure he’ll be great and he’s an exciting young talent who can play a number of different positions.
“I’m delighted for the lad and hopefully he can kick on for Tottenham. I bet he can’t wait for the season to start. I watched him at Leeds last season and he definitely has a bit about him, so good luck to him.”
Archie Gray impressed at Leeds United last season
Big things are expected of Gray, who played 52 games for Leeds United last season despite only being 18-years-old (Transfermarkt).
Capable of playing in central midfield or at right-back, the youngster has joined Spurs in a reported £30m deal (Daily Mail).
According to former Spurs keeper, Paul Robinson, Gray will go straight into Ange Postecoglou‘s first-team squad and will prove to people exactly what he is capable of at the top level very quickly (Football Insider).
Gray himself recently described his first day of training with Tottenham as a ‘brilliant’ session and said he can’t wait to keep working with the team.
Spurs Web Opinion
I really hope Postecoglou gives the likes of Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall adequate opportunities this season.
We now have two of the most exciting and talented young midfielders in Europe now, and it would be such a shame to stunt their development as we have young players in the past.
