Will be good: Ange Postecoglou praises ‘very good’ 30 goals star player, who was released by Arsenal in 2021

Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has expressed his admiration for one of the club’s promising young talents, Will Lankshear, following a standout performance in their pre-season victory over Hearts.

As Postecoglou gears up for his second season with Tottenham, he has been keen to spotlight the impressive performances emerging from the club’s academy.

Postecoglou’s first season at Tottenham saw the club achieve a commendable fifth-place finish in the Premier League, securing a spot in the Europa League. With a busy summer transfer window, Tottenham has bolstered their squad with key additions like Archie Gray from Leeds United and Lucas Bergvall from Djurgårdens IF, creating an air of excitement among fans as the new season approaches.

Tottenham’s pre-season kicked off with a commanding 5-1 victory over Hearts, showcasing the depth of talent in their squad, particularly among the academy players.

Sixteen-year-old Mikey Moore grabbed headlines by scoring against the Scottish side, drawing comparisons to Barcelona’s young sensation Lamine Yamal. However, it was Will Lankshear who garnered significant praise from Postecoglou in the post-match press conference.

Lankshear, who joined Tottenham from Sheffield United after a stint with Arsenal, has been making waves with his performances. Despite only playing 22 minutes against Hearts, the young Englishman made a substantial impact by scoring and completing all his attempted dribbles.

Postecoglou lauded Lankshear’s efforts, highlighting his bright performance in training and his hardworking nature.

“Will was good. We kind of brought him in this last week. He’s looked bright in training. He worked hard,” Postecoglou stated. “He’s had a very good year last year and it’s about rewarding him for that. It’s about coming in and making an impact. He did well and he took his goal well.”
