Yaya Toure tips two kids for Tottenham fans to watch

Manchester City legend Yaya Toure has nominated two Tottenham youngsters for fans to watch.

Now Standard Liege assistant manager, Toure coached inside Tottenham's academy last season.

"Yeah, definitely. Mikey Moore and Callum Olusesi are top grade U16s, they are really good and most of the time they were playing with the 18s," Toure told PA Sport.

"A few weeks before I left I heard they signed with Tottenham again and that is brilliant news.

"Keep the talent at home and make sure they develop again under the right coaches. I think coaches like Stuart [Lewis], Brad [Allen] and Chris Ramsay they know what those kids need to develop more.

"In a few years I think Tottenham can be back with the academy in the same way Arsenal did with Saka and Smith-Rowe. That is the plan and the vision."
