Spurs young duo linked with Spanish move

Would a move as a youngster to Real Madrid or Barcelona really be all that enjoyable?

I mean, you get to enjoy the sights and sounds of the two beautiful Spanish cities, the warm weather compared to the UK rain, the Spanish women, the experience...

Well, they're economy is worse than ours anyway!

Such a decision could be facing two Spurs youngsters according to the Metro.

The paper is reporting that Tottenham pair Alex Pritchard and Shaquille Coulthirst (great name sir!) are being eyed up by the two Spanish giants after the young pair showed off their skills in the NextGen series, the youth football equivalent of the Champions League.

18-year-old Coulthirst netted a hat trick in Spurs 4-1 win over Barcelona and is joint top scorer with Pritchard in the competition with four goals.

19-year-old Pritchard also scored in the game against Barcelona and has netted three times in two games against Wolfsburg.

So, what's it going to be boys; a win in the NextGen series and a life spent in Surrey or the opportunity to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world and compete regularly for Europe's biggest prizes. Don't take too long now.
