Tottenham Hotspur U21s are in action at Enfield Town on Saturday in the first official club friendly of the summer.

While the first team are taking on Cambridge United in a behind-closed-doors training game at Hotspur Way on Saturday afternoon, Spurs' U21s are heading just over two miles down the road to take on newly-promoted National League South side Enfield Town in an official game in front of the fans at the Queen Elizabeth II Stadium.

The likes of Mikey Moore, Jamie Donley and Tyrese Hall are expected to be with Ange Postecoglou's first team across the other side of Enfield, but there will still be plenty of talent on display wearing the new Spurs shirts for the first time for Wayne Burnett's U21s side. The development side are coming off the back of a big season in which they finished top of Premier League 2 and then won the play-offs with a victory over Sunderland at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Striker Will Lankshear netted 32 goals across the season, was named Premier League 2 Player of the Year and was then handed a bumper new five-year contract by Tottenham on Friday. The 19-year-old forward is expected to be involved against Enfield on Saturday afternoon.
