Tottenham are leading the race to sign St Patrick’s Athletic talent Mason Melia, according to TEAMtalk.
The online source reported [1 November] that Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea have all been credited with an interest in the 17-year-old, but Spurs are understood to have made a bid [Reptracker].
A total of six Premier League clubs are said to be watching the teenager, who is under contract until 2026, but given his age, Melia will not be allowed to move to the United Kingdom due to Brexit rules.
Tottenham set to sign Mason Melia from St Patrick’s Athletic?
With the record for the youngest-ever player to feature and score for St Patrick’s Athletic, Melia is clearly an exciting talent, one that Spurs should be attempting to sign.
Beating the likes of Man City and Chelsea would send a huge statement to the other clubs about Spurs’ ambition and draw for younger players, and they look to be edging ahead in the race.
The forward already has 50 senior appearances to his name since making his debut last season, and with the number of exciting gems already in North London, he would feel right at home.
Mikey Moore, Will Lankshear, Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall are all being given opportunities by Ange Postecoglou and are working towards a starting position for the Lilywhites.
This could certainly be something that Melia takes into consideration when choosing his next step because, based on his achievements so far, he will not be in Ireland for much longer.
Spurs seem to have more talented youngsters at their disposal than they know what to do with, but another in the form of Melia wouldn’t hurt.
