Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte has raved about Harvey White and has said that the midfielder is a very clever footballer, as quoted in Football.London.

Conte made the comments about White when asked to comment on any Tottenham players who have impressed him in training during the 2022 Qatar World Cup break.

One of the players Conte mentioned is 21-year-old English midfielder White.

Conte said: “Also Harvey White was a good surprise because we are talking about a young player, but really, really clever, a player that I can ask him to play in every position and he is good to do it.”

Encouraging

In our opinion, Harvey White is one of the best young midfielders at Tottenham Hotspur, and Antonio Conte’s praise for him is very encouraging.

Conte’s comments show how highly the former Chelsea manager thinks of White and what the 21-year-old midfielder can achieve in the game.

White had a loan spell at Portsmouth in 2021 and has yet to establish himself in the Tottenham first team.

However, if and when the English youngster gets the chance to play for the Tottenham first team, he will have to take it and show Conte that he can thrive at the very top level.

Tottenham are aiming to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season and have also reached the knockout rounds of the UEFA Champions League.
