Tottenham Hotspur talent Destiny Udogie has made it into Whoscored’s latest Team of the Week.
The Spurs defender, who joined from Udinese, is on loan at the Serie A club for the rest of the season.
Udogie is enjoying an outstanding campaign, with 22 appearances to his name including 21 in the league.
The Tottenham gem was particularly impressive in his side’s latest game, Saturday’s 0-0 draw away at Atalanta.
Udogie played the full 90 minutes and clocked up some impressive stats en route to a clean sheet for his side.
As per football.london, the Spurs talent won 12 of his 14 ground duels, won four from five tackles and made nine recoveries, five clearances and one interception.
Udogie also made four passes into the final third and was successful with all five of his dribbles.
Fotmob had the 20-year-old Tottenham defender down as their Player of the Match, with a rating of 8.2.
Meanwhile, Udogie had the second-highest rating on Whoscored. He got 8.01, behind teammate Jaka Bijol on 8.02.
And both players made the cut on their Team of the Week.
Exciting prospect
Football.london recently reported that Tottenham’s staff are really excited about working with Udogie next season.
And late last year, the Italian’s efforts and quality were recognised with his inclusion in the Golden Boy Top 20.
Tottenham really have struck gold in signing Udogie, and for such a low fee too.
According to Sky Sports, Spurs paid Udinese just £15million plus add-ons for the full-back.
It’s exciting to see him continue going from strength to strength at Udinese.
And it’ll be even better next year when he’ll be playing for Tottenham.
