Mikey Moore Signs New Long-Term Tottenham Deal on 18th Birthday

Mikey Moore, a promising young player, has signed a new contract with Tottenham. This happened on his 18th birthday. He is currently playing on loan for Rangers this season, with the loan deal expected to last until June 2026, as Rangers will cover his salary.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Tottenham announced that Mikey Moore, who came through their youth system, has signed a new long-term deal with the club. This secures his future at Spurs while he continues his development on loan at Rangers this season. The attacking midfielder, who joined Spurs when he was just seven, turned 18 today. Moore has already made 21 first-team appearances and scored his first senior goal in the club’s Europa League campaign earlier this year.

WHY THIS MATTERS FOR SPURS

Moore is one of Spurs’ most promising players after breaking into the first team last season. At the time, he became their youngest Premier League starter since 1993 and went on to score one goal and register two assists in all competitions in 2024/25, with a notable strike in Europe. Moore has also represented England at the Under-19 level. The club views his contract extension as crucial in tying down an important young asset at the club in the long term.

HOW THE LOAN FITS RANGERS’ PLANS

Rangers have signed Moore on loan from Spurs to add pace and creativity, both out wide and in attacking midfield areas, with the player yet to make his debut for the Glasgow club after joining earlier this month. According to recent reports, the Scottish Premiership side will hope to ease him into the side and use his abilities to help them push on in both domestic and European competitions, while Spurs hope to give the player valuable senior minutes in Scotland.

FORM, STATS AND CONTEXT

Moore’s 21 senior appearances for Tottenham came largely during the club’s Europa League title-winning season, where he netted against Elfsborg in January. He also provided two assists and set a club youth record when he became the side’s youngest Premier League starter at 17. Moore has nine caps for the England Under-19s. His progression has seen a swift rise from Spurs’ academy to becoming a regular member of the senior side.

WHAT NEXT?

Tottenham’s attention will now turn back to their Premier League season as the club hopes to build on last season’s European success, with Moore’s long-term future secured as he prepares for a crucial spell in his career. Rangers, managed by Russell Martin, will hope to start the new domestic campaign well, with Moore pushing for his first minutes of the season. Spurs will no doubt be keeping a close eye on his game time, with a mid-season review to take place should the club deem there to be insufficient opportunities for the player in Glasgow.
