Sources: Tottenham submit Willhoft-King offer after Arsenal humiliated
Tottenham have offered a two-year scholarship contract to midfield starlet Han Willhoft-King, Football Insider can exclusively reveal.
The Under-15s midfielder enhanced his reputation by recently putting Arsenal to the sword with two goals in Spurs Under-17s' 9-0 thrashing of their rivals.
A Tottenham source has told Football Insider that the club have moved to secure Willhoft-King to a scholarship and want a deal done ahead of the new year.
The goalscoring midfielder has made such an impression for the Londoners he has already made his debut in the Under-18 Premier League.
Willhoft-King is among a group of young talents who have already been offered early scholarships by the London giants.
Football Insider revealed the club have also offered the two-year deals to 15-year-old attacker Samuel Amo-Ameyaw, 15-year-old centre-back duo Archie Chaplin and Pele Arganese-McDermott as well as 15-year-old goalkeeper Elliot Krasniqi.
Spurs typically offer scholarships around February or March, with the deals then starting on 1 June.
But Tottenham, like with Krasniqi, Amo-Ameyaw, Arganese-McDermott and Chaplin, are keen to tie down Willhoft-King ahead of the new year to avoid him being snapped up by rival teams.
Tottenham have proved willing to fast-track the best of their young players over the last year.
Teenage trio Dane Scarlett, Alfie Devine and Nile John have all made their first-team debuts after graduating from the academy.
