Tottenham Hotspur’s young talent Will Lankshear is reportedly on the verge of a loan move away from White Hart Lane this summer, aimed at furthering his development as a promising striker.
Lankshear, a highly regarded graduate of the Hotspur Way academy, recently committed to a new five-year contract that binds him to Spurs until 2029. Described as “phenomenal” by John Wenham, the youngster has been training with the first team this week, showcasing his potential.
According to Spurs correspondent Alasdair Gold, the club values Lankshear highly and sees a loan as crucial for his progression, with significant interest coming from Championship and League One clubs.
Starting his career at Arsenal’s Hale End Academy before moving to Sheffield United, Lankshear’s impressive stint at Bramall Lane caught Tottenham’s attention. They secured his services for £2.5 million, fending off competition from Brentford.
Since joining Spurs, Lankshear has continued to impress, notably scoring 23 goals in 23 appearances in the recent Premier League 2 season and delivering standout performances in the UEFA Youth League.
His consistent displays have convinced Spurs of his readiness for senior football, aligning with their plans to integrate him into Ange Postecoglou’s squad in the near future.
