Tottenham sensation Reo Griffiths has been linked with a move to RB Leipzig.

Tottenham sensation Reo Griffiths has fuelled rumours of a reported move to German Bundesliga side RedBull Leipzig by posting “Off to Germany” on Twitter – and Spurs fans have reacted in desperate fashion.

The Daily Mirror claim the 17-year-old is interesting Leipzig, despite Spurs attempts to keep the goal machine in north London with the offer of a new contract.

Interest in Griffiths has come to the fore after the youngster scored a mind-boggling 27 goals in just 20 Under-18 Premier League appearances for Spurs this season, including four goals in a 9-0 win over north London rivals Arsenal.

Griffiths also featured for Spurs in the UEFA Youth League, finding the back of the net against APOEL Nicosia back in December. Though it is unclear why, Griffiths Tweeted “Off to Germany”.

Spurs have produced huge talent since the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino in north London, with the likes of Harry Winks, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Josh Onomah and Kyle Walker-Peters all being given plenty of chances in the first team.

Griffiths seems to be of a similar calibre to those handful of players despite his tender age, and his Tweet sparked Spurs fans into action with the majority urging him to stay amid fears that he could be going to Germany to sign for Leipzig.
