Romaine Mundle has been promoted to Tottenham's first team squad but the club faces a race against time with his contract running out while Herbie James has signed from Manchester City.
Mundle, 19, has made a big impression on the first team coaches this season after making huge strides in 2023, with three goals and two assists in his past five matches for Spurs' U21s. The teenager's development was rewarded in January with a spot on the bench in the FA Cup tie against Portsmouth. He had been an unused substitute the previous season in the 1-0 Europa Conference League qualifying round defeat at Pacos de Ferreira under Nuno Espirito Santo.
Then Mundle, who turns 20 later this month and can play on either flank, received another big pat on the back as Antonio Conte promoted him fully to his first team squad in early March and handed him his first spot in a Premier League matchday squad with a place on the bench for the win against Nottingham Forest.
