Reo Griffiths is rated as one of Tottenham’s best up-and-coming talents.
Tottenham Hotspur youngser Reo Griffiths is reportedly interesting Bundesliga title chasers RB Leipzig as he continues to shine in Scott Parker’s Under-18 side – and fans are desperate for the striker to remain in north London.
The 17-year-old has caught the eye after his incredible run of form for Spurs’ Under-18 side, in which he has scored 20 goals this season including a hat-trick against north London rivals Arsenal last time out in a 4-1 win.
That has seen Spurs progress into the final of the Under-18 Premier League Cup, where they will face Chelsea. However, it could be one of Griffiths’ last involvements as a Spurs player as Leipzig come calling.
Paul Mitchell is Leipzig’s new head of recruitment and ESPN reckon the former Spurs chief wants to lure Griffiths to Germany, after already signing Ademola Lookman on loan from Everton until the end of the season.
Tottenham fans reacted to the reports by urging their club to keep Griffiths in north London, as he continues to show just what he is capable of by reaching the 20-figure mark already this season.
One fan remarked “I’d leave if I couldn’t get a game ahead of Llorente”.
