London: Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou had a strong reaction when asked about Mikey Moore, the club’s promising 17-year-old player. Moore has shown great potential this season, making eight appearances and impressing fans with his talent.
Unfortunately, Moore has been absent from the last five matches due to an illness that has not been publicly detailed. As the busy holiday season approaches, fans are eager to see him return to the field and showcase his skills.
After a disappointing 1-1 draw against Fulham, Tottenham is set to face Bournemouth this Thursday. In a recent press conference, Postecoglou was asked again about Moore’s condition, and he seemed frustrated with the ongoing inquiries.
Postecoglou emphasized the importance of protecting the young player. He stated, “I want to be as transparent as I can, but this is a 17-year-old boy. I don’t like talking about what they have and what they don’t have.” He reassured everyone that Moore’s situation is not serious.
He continued, explaining that young players recover at different rates. Postecoglou mentioned, “He’ll be back. He’s still here. He’s part of what we’re doing, and he’ll be back in the next few weeks.” However, he also noted that they need to consider Moore’s age and ensure he is ready before returning to the first team.
Postecoglou’s protective stance highlights his commitment to the well-being of his players, especially the younger ones like Moore. Fans will have to wait a little longer to see the talented teenager back in action.
