Tottenham Hotspur fans are excited about Mauricio Pochettino’s reported plan for Troy Parrott.

According to Football.London, Pochettino has been impressed by the Tottenham teenager and could involve him in first-team matters next season.

The Irish hitman dazzled for Spurs’ Under-18 side last term, netting 19 goals in 27 outings.

In fact, it was even suggested that Pochettino could promote him last season when Harry Kane got injured in January, though the teenager still hasn’t made a senior debut for the North Londoners.

But if rumours are believed, that could change next season and here’s how Tottenham fans reacted to that idea:

This is good and bad news for Spurs.

It’s positive because it’s great to see Tottenham putting faith in one of their own, as they did with Harry Kane, but it could also be a negative thing at this stage because, well, he’s 17.

Pochettino badly need a tried-and-tested experienced marksman to challenge Kane next season and, as of right now, Parrott has potential and nothing else.
