There was an unfamiliar face in Tottenham Hotspur’s training session on Thursday.

Spurs have been back in action at Hotspur Way for over a week as Jose Mourinho’s side prepare for Project Restart in two weeks time.

And it looks like Mourinho brought a certain Harvey White into his senior training yesterday afternoon.

The highly-rated 18-year-old midfielder was among the faces photographed during the session.

White is yet to make his debut for the North Londoners but his form at Under-18 level led to him being offered a professional deal earlier in 2020, which underlines his potential.

On Tottenham’s official website, he is described as being a ‘dead-ball specialist’ and it’ll be interesting to see if he impressed Mourinho.

It must be noted that he won’t be making his Premier League debut anytime soon, and certainly not in any of the remaining nine games of this season.

But going forward, White is a very exciting prospect and hopefully yesterday’s session stoked his appetite for the big time in North London.
