Kyle Walker-Peters has stated on Twitter that the hard work has begun ahead of Tottenham Hotspur’s new Premier League campaign.

A number of Spurs supporters responded to the 22-year-old’s message by saying that they believe he should be Mauricio Pochettino’s number one right-back this season.

Here is Walker-Peters message, as posted on his personal Twitter account after the first day of pre-season.

During the previous campaign, Kieran Trippier was Tottenham’s main man at right-back, with Serge Aurier being the backup.

But Trippier’s form dipped in an alarming fashion after the World Cup, as his future in North London is now coming into question.

Walker-Peters did feature under Pochettino, albeit in a sporadic fashion, he played six Premier League games for the club

It remains to be seen whether that game time will be increased ahead of the new campaign, as he has a great opportunity to stake his claim for a starting spot in these coming weeks.

There’s no doubt that that the Tottenham faithful are urging him and backing him to grab that seemingly available number one right-back spot.
