Tottenham’s 18-year-old impressed Postecoglou with his performance in the club

Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou has stated that 18-year-old Alfie Devine has impressed him thus far at the club.

Postecoglou mentioned the youngster during their pre-season tour at his news conference, according to Football London.

When discussing Tottenham’s academy, the manager also praised young striker Dane Scarlett.

“It’s an important part of this football club and the infrastructure, and it’s something that we’re constantly monitoring to make sure the club is in the best possible position to find and develop the best talent,” Postecoglou said.

“We have Alfie Devine and Dane Scarlett with us, two young guys who have done really well and have been with the first team.”

Spurs fans will be very excited to hear this update about their young midfielder.

Devine is expected to leave on loan this season and was excellent in his minutes against West Ham.

The Englishman was introduced at half-time in that game and had a big influence in his cameo.

Having never previously left the club on loan, Devine will really hope this year can be the catalyst in his progression.

Ange Postecoglou is clearly keeping a close eye on Devine who should also be involved in tomorrow’s friendly.

Spurs face Lion City Sailors in their last friendly of the tour before returning to London.

Dane Scarlett, who Postecoglou also praised, is unlikely to feature in the game having picked up a minor injury.

Scarlett, like Devine, might benefit from a loan this season and will be hoping to improve on his time at Portsmouth.

Devine’s new position may have also caught the eye during his minutes against West Ham.

Although it was not a permanent change, the kid saw time on the right flank.

Devine has typically played as an attacking midfielder throughout his career, but Ange may be emphasizing his versatility ahead of a loan.

Despite his impressive youth career, Devine will now really be hoping to forge senior minutes in the coming season.

And if he performs well, there appears to be no limit to what he may accomplish at Spurs.

Tottenham fans will also be relieved to learn that he has already agreed to a new contract that will last until 2027.
