Player Watch Player Watch: Destiny Udogie

Assou Ekotto assurance on the ball with Danny Rose aggression. Great signing, we need to keep him fit for the full league program and we'll be ok.

Such great comparisons and what a blend of a player that is!

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

I think he will be tremendous for us in the coming years. I’m pretty sure he’ll be recognised by all the top teams as a class act, which will see teams trying to buy him. I hope he’s on a long term deal, if not Levy needs to get one ready ASAP

 

[BorjeSpurs]

And of course, because he has pulled out of the U21's, (and newly-installed Spalletti overlooked him at senior level) he is still eligible to play as a full international for Nigeria. So the Nigeria Soccer Rederation is happy (for now) at least.

Italy's loss will be Nigeria's gain if he ends up switching countries, although I would imagine this is unlikely.

More players to future AFCONs?

Love this. How is he only 20? He could've just rolled up, done a couple of bits for the camera and gone but it seems like he really got into it and made the day for the kids.

 

[Chris Finch]

We've got a real gem on our hands

 

[King of the Lane]

Already becoming one of my favourites in our squad. I predict that he will be the LB in the team of the season - he is that good already.

 

[Mr Pink]

As long as those guys aren't singing it 🫨

I think they're brilliant at it lol

I keep listening to it, over and over

 

[Nayim60yards]

This is so good. Need to hear this belting out at games.

The fans were singing it at Burnley

 

[Carson35]

No doubt that this boy is already one of my favorites in this team. I wish he makes Italian NT and get his first senior call up next month. He is that good. He may not be as good as Dimarco (who is currently the starting LB for Italy) offensively. But he plays both offense and defense well. That makes him so special.

 

[delawarespur]

Once again a machine on that left hand side.

 

[Flobadob]

Once again a machine on that left hand side.

Such a talent. Lacks absolutely nothing to be a top 3-4 LB in the world. Same goes for Sarr. We’ve done amazingly to get them both before they showed how huge their talent is

 

[Stamford]

What an unreal player. Calm always

 

[spurs mental]

Won the ball back for the second goal with speed of thought and desire. Fantastic footballer for his age.

 

[fortworthspur]

looks like he's been doing this forever.

Part of me would love to drive to an away game with those lads but another part of me wants to live

[Mattspurs1982]

What a fantastic signing

 

[Misfit]

Absolute gold

 

[Frank Blank]

I like the use of the word f"cking - just to emphasise the point.

We are indeed blessed having such a talent.

Same goes for our midfield, which is shaping up to be one of the best in the league. And we've yet to even see the return of Bentancur.

 

[arunspurs]

Better than a Energiser bunny - can run & run & run. Game can be 130minutes long, he will keep running and look to win

What a absolute monster of a player.
