Reo Griffiths saga takes another turn

The Reo Griffiths saga looks like it has taken another turn after it appeared that the striker has deleted all of his Tottenham Hotspur related photographs from his Instagram profile.

Griffiths scored an impressive 32 goals in 27 games for Tottenham’s U18 side last season and has been tipped for a bright future, but eyebrows were raised when he was left out of the tour of the USA.

Typically, there’s no smoke without fire and decided to cancel his third-year scholarship at the club with Lyon, PSG and Real Madrid all said to be keen on signing the 18-year-old.

He took to social media earlier today to post an Instagram story which read “It’s disgusting how people can lie like this”. Obviously, we are reading between the lines that this could be linked with his current footballing situation, but it appears that his time as a Spurs player is up.

SunSport reported that both parties signed a document cancelling the player’s scholarship and Spurs will receive six years’ training compensation under FIFA rules when Griffiths joins another club.

Griffiths follows Keanan Bennetts in leaving Spurs, after the left-sided player joined German outfit Borussia Monchengladbach in May.
