What a brilliant day for Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs hammered Leeds United 4-0 at Elland Road this afternoon to get their season back on track following a topsy-turvy few days which have been dominated by Antonio Conte’s future in North London.

But it was also an excellent day for one of their loan players.

Well, kind of.

Kion Etete, a 20-year-old Tottenham striker out on loan, has just scored another goal for his loan club.

The powerful forward, who stands at 6’6 [The Sun], equalised for Cheltenham Town this afternoon.

But the League One outfit still slipped to defeat at home to Crewe Alexandra.

However, the fact that Etete – who also scored last week – is finding the net somewhat regularly is absolutely a positive thing for the colossal attacker.

A prolific goalscorer at Under-23 level for Tottenham, this is Etete’s first season experiencing men’s football.

And although a loan at Northampton Town during the first half of the campaign didn’t yield much success, despite them being a League Two club, Etete seems to have very much found his feet at the moment.
