Spurs starlet Willhoft-King agrees to join Man City in youth coup
Highly rated Tottenham Hotspur academy star Han Willhoft-King left Hotspur Way earlier this summer, and he has been linked with a move to Spurs’ Premier League rivals Manchester City.
John Wenham, owner of the reputable Spurs podcast Lilywhite Rose, has expressed his source of distress as the 18-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester City. He has also praised the agent of the teenager for lining up a move to Etihad Stadium.
The Cityzens have agreed on a deal to bring Willhoft-King to Manchester this summer, with the 18-year-old set to sign a two-year deal, per . This comes after he turned down a contract offer from Spurs ahead of his release from White Hart Lane.
And Wenham, in an exclusive interview with the gave his best wishes to the player for joining a club where he can continue to develop his skills. He said:
Manchester City agree deal to sign 2006 born talented midfielder Han Willhoft-King for the U19.
Willhoft-King left Tottenham few weeks ago and he’s joining on two year contract.
Medical tests set to take place shortly.
Praise has to go to his agent because this is a fantastic move for the player. He spent a lot of time behind George Abbott and Tyrese Hall while with the Spurs. However, he was offered a new deal, but I don’t know whether that was to ensure the club got a compensation fee or because they genuinely wanted to keep him. He only changed his agent around a month ago, so this is a great start for them, and best of luck to him. It is a big surprise, but hopefully he pushes on and becomes a real player with City.
