Irish Premiership: George Feeney completes Tottenham Hotspur move

Must read

Glentoran teenager George Feeney has formally completed his move to Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur.

The 16-year-old striker, son of former Northern Ireland forward Warren Feeney, will link up with Spurs’ under-18 side in north London.

BBC Sport NI reported in November that Brighton, Tottenham, Crystal Palace and West Ham were believed to be interested in Feeney.

He became the youngest ever goalscorer in the Glens’ history in October last year when, as a 15-year-old, he netted in a BetMcLean Cup first round victory against Dollingstown.

Feeney has played underage international football for both Northern Ireland and Wales, where he was born.

Glentoran’s 16-year-old defender Darragh McCann has also completed a Premier League move, joining newly promoted Ipswich Town after signing a three-year deal with the club.
