Tottenham Hotspur have been vying to create a squad with high-potential young players that could reap benefits at length in North London.
The influx of these talents has raised the potential outreach of the current squad at Ange Postecoglou’s disposal, and the Australian gaffer would be looking to shape these starlets as per his playing style and standards.
One of the exciting yet under-the-radar players who arrived at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer is Wilson Odobert.

The young winger arrived at Spurs in a deal worth £25m as the French winger signs a contract at White Hart Lane till 2029.
The highly regarded 19-year-old is more of an unknown entity among the North London supporters, and Burnley boss Scott Parker has been speaking very highly about the player of late.
Parker spoke about how impressed he had been with the player in a relatively short time in charge of the Clarets.
“Real bright future ahead”
Speaking in an interview about Wilson Odobert via the Burnley Express, Parker said:
“It’s a shame to see Wilson go. He’s obviously a top talent that has been nurtured and brought through here, [but] an opportunity for Wilson at Spurs is an incredible opportunity.”

“I spent four weeks working with Wilson, and I saw every bit of his quality every day; he was a credit in terms of his professionalism and his quality. Everything about him was superb, and everybody at the football club wished him nothing but the very best at what is a top club. I understand that. We have no doubt he has a real bright future ahead.”

Wilson Odobert is someone who likes to operate with the ball at his feet and express himself against the fullbacks. He is someone who brings ample different attributes on the pitch for Spurs. We think he is the Nico Williams alternative that Ange and Levy recognised early.
What do you think about Odobert?
How many goals do you think he will score this season?
