TBH he is only 18 and probably dropped into a bad position at Spurs. But £30mil does seem to be an example of overhype. I had a quick search of the most expensive teenagers in English football and he is in the middle of the top 10. Some names in there.

Just looked down that list and there’s no Vinicius Junior or Rodrygo, didn’t the other young Brazilian who scored against England that plays for Madrid go for big money as well?

Very much not "in English football" though.

Mbappe was a teenager when PSG paid £160m for him.

Ah!! I missed that nugget of crucial information, don’t mind me, as you were! 🤦‍♂️

Pitchside. The ooohs aaaahs moment is at 5:20 in. And if BE is still lurking, his bit is at 6:50.

Pete Schaad hasn’t produced a Holy Trinity podcast reviewing the game last Sunday as far as I can see. Anybody know why? I quite like his podcasts.
