Tottenham interested in 14-year-old Newcastle starlet Bobby Clark
The Daily Mail reports that Tottenham are interested in Newcastle youngster Bobby Clark. Steve Bruce, the Newcastle manager, rates Bobby as one of the club’s best prospects (h/t Daily Mail).
The 14-year-old is the son of Newcastle legend Lee Clark and has already played for the Magpies’ U18 side.
The report adds that Clark will be in action for England’s U15s next month. The Three Lions are set to face Ireland and Turkey in December.
Loads of interest in the youngster
The midfield has caught the attention of several other Premier League clubs too. Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea are all keen on the 14-year-old (h/t Daily Mail).
Bayern Munich have also kept an eye on the youngster, however, Clark prefers to stay with the Magpies (h/t Daily Mail).
The report adds that Tottenham are the favourites to land the teenager should his family decide that the player’s development should continue at another club.
It will be an interesting time for Tottenham too with the arrival of Jose Mourinho. Mauricio Pochettino had a history of giving young players a chance.
The Argentine saw the development and progression of Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Harry Winks to name a few.
