The new coaching set-up at Tottenham Hotspur under Thomas Frank is starting to take shape, and the club have just made another top appointment.
The 51-year-old has made sweeping changes to the first-team set-up following the departure of Ange Postecoglou and his staff, having brought in several people from Brentford.
Despite the Bees’ attempt to keep him, Justin Cochrane joins Tottenham as Frank’s assistant coach; meanwhile, Andreas Georgson joins as a set-piece coach.
The Lilywhites have just made yet another key appointment, which will be much to the delight of the promising young talent that is Mikey Moore.
Tottenham confirm the first-team appointment of Stuart Lewis
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the appointment of Stuart Lewis as part of Thomas Frank’s new-look coaching set-up.
Stuart spent four years in charge of the U-18s team, where he had much success, winning four titles.
The 37-year-old is now tasked with helping to develop the younger players and integrate academy stars into the first team.
This is excellent news for the youngsters currently waiting for first-team chances, as Lewis will be able to recommend them to Frank.
Following another U-17 Premier League Cup win, that age group is now brimming with promising talents, who could get chances next season.
Luca Williams-Barnett netted a hat-trick in the final against Charlton Athletic, and his goal record last term was quite outstanding.
Williams-Barnett just signed a scholarship with Tottenham, locking him in for at least two years. The attacking midfielder is a player to keep an eye on for sure.
Jun’ai Byfield is another player to look out for, with his promising performances making him a key player for England U-17.
Mikey Moore’s record playing under Stuart Lewis at Tottenham
One Spurs player who knows Lewis very well is Moore, who played for two seasons under the former U-18 coach.
The 17-year-old was outstanding under his guidance, producing a total of 19 goals and 13 assists in 24 matches.
Lewis appears to know how to get the best out of Spurs’ mercurial talent, and following a tough debut campaign in the first team, the coach’s arrival is great news.
Last term, Moore struggled with illness, which held him back, but now, under Frank and with Lewis in the new set-up, this could be the season he steps up.
