Tottenham forward scores a brace to celebrate his new five-year contract

Will Lankshear celebrated his new long-term contract by netting a brace for Tottenham’s Under-21s in their first pre-season game of the summer against Enfield Town.

Will Lankshear signs new five-year Spurs contract

Lankshear netted 25 goals in 26 matches across all competitions last season, playing a vital role in taking Tottenham’s Under-21 side to the Premier League 2 title.

There is a lot of excitement about the centre-forward’s potential at Hotspur Way and he is thought to be attracting interest from the EFL ahead of the new season (London World).

Tottenham announced on Friday that on the back of his outstanding showing over the last year, the 19-year-old had been rewarded with a new five-year deal, thus committing his future to the club until 2029.

Lankshear scores a brace in pre-season friendly

Lankshear continued where he left off last season, netting twice in the pre-season opener on Saturday to add to Callum Olusesi’s early opener as Wayne Burnett’s men raced to a 3-0 lead at half-time against Enfield Town.

The non-league side hit back with two goals in the second half through Marcus Wyllie and Billy Leonard to add respectability to the scoreline.

Lankshear will surely be hoping to either break into the first-team set-up or impress out on loan next season as he looks to take the next step in his Spurs career.

One would have expected Lankshear to be involved with the first team during pre-season but that does not appear to be the case.

If the teenager does not fly out to Asia with the senior squad, that could perhaps be a sign that Tottenham wish to loan him out.
