'Great': Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro wowed by £15m Tottenham player's latest display for his country

A multitude of Tottenham Hotspur players are currently away on international duty with their respective countries.

A total of 16 Spurs players have linked up with their national sides, either at senior or youth level.

On Friday night, one Tottenham talent helped his nation record a historic result over one of their neighbours.

And the likes of Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro were among those who praised their teammate on social media after the game.

The player in question is Destiny Udogie, who came on for Italy in their 3-1 win over France in their Nations League encounter in Paris.

The £15million Tottenham full-back provided the assist for Giacomo Raspadori to score the Azzurri’s third of the game and rubber-stamp a superb win for the visitors.

Italy were trailing after less than a minute as Bradley Barcola scored early on, but Federico Dimarco, Davide Frattesi and Raspadori turned the game around.

Udogie took to Instagram on Saturday afternoon, sharing a variety of photos from the game and elsewhere, and mentioned how “blessed” he feels.

Van de Ven responded by writing “grande” (great) in the comments, while Porro posted alternating ‘shocked face’ and wind emojis.

Fellow Premier League-based Italian Caleb Okoli and rapper Jay1 also praised the Spurs ace.

What next for Udogie?

Italy will hope to make it two wins in a row when they take on Israel in Monday’s Nations League encounter in Budapest.

Udogie could be involved for that game as well, after which he is set to return to Hotspur Way as Tottenham continue their preparations for the North London derby.

Spurs host bitter rivals Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday 15 September.
