Tottenham Hotspur winger Mikey Moore has set his sights very high over the next few years after making a big impact on loan at Rangers.
Spurs fans were very interested to see whether Moore could kick on at Ibrox this season after the impact he made in the Europa League last term.
After a tough start to life in Scotland, Moore has come into his own at Rangers, with the youngster now appearing at ease with the pressures of playing for a big club.
The 18-year-old displays in Glasgow have certainly created plenty of excitement in North London, and the Spurs academy graduate certainly believes he can make it at his parent club.
Mikey Moore insists he is now ready for first-team football at Tottenham
There have been reports suggesting that Tottenham could extend Moore’s loan spell at Rangers if they avoid relegation this season.
Spurs fans will be hoping that the teenager can follow in Harry Kane’s footsteps and become the next best big-name star to emerge from the academy, and Moore believes he is already ready for Premier League football.
When asked about his hopes at Tottenham, Moore told The Athletic: “Whether it’s next year or the year after, I want to break in and make an impact. I helped out in some Premier League games and gave a good account of myself, and in others, I didn’t show enough. But now I’m at a point where I can make an impact. If that opportunity comes, I would love to get a hold of it.”
When asked about Tottenham’s current predicament, he said: “It’s tough to see people you care about and some of your mates going through a tough time. It’s a club I care about so much. For us to be in the position we’re in is not nice.
“Sometimes I wish I could go back and help but there are some top players there who should be able to help get us out of the position we’re in and push on next season. There is enough quality in that team to get out of it.”
Moore wants to be one of the best players in the world
The youngster is not just satisfied with becoming a first-team regular at Tottenham either. Moore believes he possesses the talent to become one of the best players in the world, and he is determined to fulfil his potential.
When asked if he harbours ambitions of becoming the best in the world, the Spurs youngster said: “I believe in my talent, and I believe I have the ability to do it. I know I’m going to work my hardest to get there. A lot of it is about the mentality you bring to games. It’s always been my dream to be one of the best players in the world. Why be scared to say it?
“At the start of the season, it may have looked absolutely stupid when I was playing awfully. Now I’m doing a bit better, maybe it doesn’t look as stupid. But I’ve got time on my hands to try and make that happen. In the next few years, we’ll see where I am.”
