Tottenham striker Parrott happy studying Kane and Son up close

Tottenham striker Troy Parrott is delighted being part of senior preseason in South Korea.

Parrott is coming off an impressive season on-loan with MK Dons.

"From when I first came in as a kid, just to watch them, let alone train with the guys like that day in, day out, was a massive help," said Parrott of senior strikers Harry Kane and Heung-min Son.

"Just to see the way they prepare, the way they play on the pitch, just trying to take things in.

"I ask them questions when I'm curious about stuff and they're always open people who will do anything to help."

Of his loan, Parrott said: "I just wanted to give it everything.

"I needed to have a big six months for the second half of the season to come back here full of confidence and playing well. I think that's what I did to be honest.

"Speaking to other players, I think everyone goes through a bit of their own stuff. I don't think you can put your finger on just one thing. It's a number of things coming together and just making sure you prepare right and when you're on the pitch doing the things that will keep you on the pitch.

"Make yourself too hard to drop and that's what I was trying to do in every game. You could say it was a turning point but I was just more confident, I was scoring goals and it was a good time."
