Tottenham Hotspur have produced some top talents in recent years and there’s another one now being tipped for stardom.
Jamie Donley is the player in question, and ahead of Spurs taking on Liverpool, he has been pictured in training.
On Thursday, the Tottenham website shared images of their players in training ahead of Jurgen Klopp’s Reds coming to N17.
Donley features in one picture captioned: “Deki, Ben, Destiny, Jamie Donley, Eric Dier and Pape in non-bibs team.”
It’s great to see the 18-year-old train with the seniors, particularly ahead of such a big game against Liverpool.
Not only is it testament to his quality and potential, but also he’ll be picking up some great advice from his peers.

‘He’s one to watch out for’
Donley has been making waves in the Tottenham academy and has been tipped as a future star for Spurs.
This season, he has registered a staggering six assists and one goal from six Premier League 2 games.
Donley has also dazzled in the EFL Trophy, registering two goals and one assist against Colchester.
The Athletic’s Jack Pitt-Brooke has described Donley as a “natural footballer” who’s very “elegant and skilful”.
Speaking on the View From The Lane podcast earlier this year, he says the youngster is viewed as “the best of his generation” at N17.

“I think the best young player they’ve got is a lad called Jamie Donley,” said Pitt-Brooke.
“He was born in Northern Ireland, I’ve seen him play actually, and he played in that game he was good.
“He’s a natural footballer, lots of time on the ball, elegant, skilful.
“He was playing in attacking midfield but I gather he can also play up front.
“He’s very highly rated and is thought to be the best of his generation coming through at Tottenham at the moment, so he’s one to watch out for

‘Wants to leave’: Fabrizio Romano says ‘important’ player is already preparing to leave Tottenham
The transfer window may have only just closed, but agents and players never stop thinking about what could be around the corner.
Indeed, while we’re still months away from the January transfer window, there are players who are already thinking about getting a move this winter.

According to Fabrizio Romano, speaking on the Here We Go Podcast, one player who is already thinking about a move in the coming weeks is Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
Indeed, Romano says that Hojbjerg has changed agent and is now looking for a move in January or in the summer, stating that he and his representatives are already preparing for a future away from Tottenham.

Hojbjerg wants to leave
Romano shared what he knows about the midfielder.
“There is always movement and now they are restarting. You have to be connected and in touch with clubs. Players who aren’t happy with their clubs are already thinking of the January transfer window. For example, an important player at Tottenham – Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg he changed his agent and now he’s looking for a move in January or in the summer transfer window, but he wants to leave Tottenham, so they’re already preparing for the future,” Romano said.

Makes sense
As much as it is a shame to see Hojbjerg in this sort of situation, it’s fair to say that this move would make sense.
The Dane is, quite clearly, not the most important player in the Tottenham team these days, and, in all honesty, he’s way too talented to be sitting on the bench at any club.
There’s a reason the likes of Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich looked at signing him this summer, and, if he’s allowed to go, it shouldn’t be too difficult for Hojbjerg to find a move in January.
