The gifted academy winger hints at extending his Scottish Premiership adventure following a humiliating weekend that pushed the Lilywhites closer to the Championship drop.
The atmosphere inside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is growing increasingly hostile following Sunday afternoon. A humiliating 0-3 defeat against Nottingham Forest has dragged the North Londoners right back into the relegation mire. While the senior squad collapses under the guidance of Igor Tudor, a different story is unfolding elsewhere. Mikey Moore is currently enjoying a phenomenal loan spell.
The gifted winger, with a market value of €16m has thrived since Rangers appointed Danny Rohl and adopted a much more attacking philosophy. He is finally getting the regular minutes required to fulfill his massive potential. Naturally, the N17 faithful hoped their prized asset would return to bolster the ranks next season. However, the latest updates from Scotland suggest the teenager is heavily conflicted about his immediate future.
Speaking to Andy Newport of the Daily Record, the attacker kept his cards close to his chest regarding a return. Moore explicitly stated that he will “see how the season ends” and “who comes in” before finding the best solution. The starlet described the loan as “unbelievable” for his growth. He even suggested he would “love to stay” if the situation is right.
A massive wake up call for the boardroom as top prospects eye an exit
These comments serve as a devastating reality check for the boardroom. Joe Soriano of Hotspur HQ recently highlighted that choosing between European football in Glasgow and a Championship scrap in N17 is a no-brainer for the player. The North London institution can no longer guarantee the stability or the developmental platform that a young attacker desperately needs.
The hierarchy must take these warning signs seriously before a mass exodus begins. A talent of this magnitude should be the cornerstone of any future rebuild at the club. The board needs to present a clear roadmap to ensure Moore commits his long-term future to the Lilywhites. Time is rapidly running out to fix this broken project before the summer window opens.
