Proclaimed as Tottenham’s ‘future star’ Reo Griffiths has left the club after he cancelled his own contract.
The 18-year-old has been linked with a summer move with numerous European sides looking to invest in the youngster.
Ligue 1 side Lyon seem set to snap up the potential ‘wonder kid’ with the two parties believed to be in ‘advanced talks’ over a potential move.
Griffiths made his name at Spurs following a sensational performance against North London rivals Arsenal in a 9-0 victory over their U18s side.
The London-born striker netted four against the Gunners as well as providing three assists in the record-breaking win.
Football.London believe Spurs will receive a compensation package no matter who Griffiths decides to join due to the money and time invested in the 18-year-old throughout his time in the Spurs academy.
