Tottenham Hotspur youngster Shayon Harrison is reportedly on the radar of Melbourne City.

According to The Sunday Morning Herald, Tottenham Hotspur forward Shayon Harrison will join A-League outfit Melbourne City on a loan deal.

It has been reported that City manager Warren Joyce has contacts at Tottenham and made an approach for the 21-year-old.

The report has also claimed that the English youngster is expected to be available for City for their game against Adelaide at AAMI Park on February 9 if he gets the required visa to play in Australia.

Good move for Shayon Harrison?

Harrison has come through the youth ranks at Tottenham, but the 21-year-old’s only senior appearance for the North London outfit was against Liverpool in a League Cup tie back in October 2016.

The 21-year-old has had loan spells at Yeovil Town and Southend United since 2017, and a short-term loan deal at City is going to be good for his development.

Melbourne City are an ambitious club, and Harrison will develop well in that competitive environment.
