Tottenham Hotspur have made it clear they will not sell rising star Mikey Moore, but the 19-year-old winger could be available for another season-long loan, with Rangers leading the race for his signature.
Moore's Impact at Rangers
Moore was electric during his time in Glasgow, becoming a fan favourite under former boss Danny Rohl. The wide man intimated he would be open to extending his stay at Ibrox, telling reporters: "I've enjoyed every second of my time here." However, he added that the final decision is not in his hands: "For the decision on my future, it's not completely done. Honestly, it's not in my hands. I'll speak to people in the summer."
Tottenham's Stance
According to Spurs insider and Sky Sports presenter Michael Bridge, speaking on Last Word On Spurs, Tottenham are determined to keep Moore as a long-term asset. Bridge revealed: "Moore won't be sold. De Zerbi should allow him another chance away from North London." The club's academy standout is seen as a key part of their future, but with first-team opportunities limited, a loan move is the preferred option.
New Rangers boss Derek McInnes has been informed that Moore is in line for another short-term exit from Spurs. The teenager rose to prominence under Rohl and was instrumental in Rangers' campaign, but mystery surrounded his status while Tottenham were under threat of relegation. Now that Spurs have secured their Premier League status, the path is clear for Moore to head back out for more game time.
Moore's Future Plans
Moore admitted he is keen to make the right decision for his career. "But if it is right for me to come back here next year or if it's right for me to go somewhere else, whatever's right for my career, that's how it will play out," he said. "We'll have to see in the summer. I'm completely honest with everyone about the way my future is."
With Tottenham's rebuild under Roberto De Zerbi set to be funded by a summer of change, the club see Moore as a valuable asset not for sale. Rangers fans will be hoping the 19-year-old returns to Ibrox to continue his development.
