Another Tottenham Hotspur defender was on target this week.

Cameron Carter-Vickers isn’t the only Tottenham Hotspur defender to have found the net while out on loan this week – Anton Walkes was at it too.
The 20-year-old is enjoying a sustained run in Atlanta United’s first team, making the right-back spot his own in recent weeks.

And he scored the second goal of his stateside spell against New England Revolution in the early hours of this morning, British Summer Time.
Arriving at the far post, Walkes followed up a Josef Martinez hat-trick to put his temporary employers 4-0 ahead on the stroke of half-time – as shown on the video below.
The academy product is due back at Tottenham at the end of 2017, and his Atlanta performances could provide Mauricio Pochettino some food for thought – despite the Spurs boss also having Kieran Trippier and Serge Aurier available on the right.
Walkes, who is under contract at Wembley until June 2018, can also play centre-back, left-back and defensive midfield if required.
Can Walkes make an impact back at Tottenham?
