Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for the Champions League final next month.

Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for the Champions League final against Liverpool in Madrid on June 1, and the players have been training hard.

Under the watchful eyes of Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino, the players were training hard on Friday.

Among those who were training was 18-year-old midfielder Oliver Skipp, who has made only a handful of appearances for the Tottenham first team in his career so far.

The teenager made two starts and six substitute appearances in the Premier League for Spurs this season, according to WhoScored, and is part of the North London club’s Champions League squad.

Bright future ahead

Skipp is unlikely to feature regularly for the Tottenham first team next season, but the midfielder could establish himself in the senior side in the next two or three years.

There is no hurry, as the midfielder is only 18 years of age, and training with the first team and getting chances from time to time is going to help him develop in the coming years.
