Tottenham Hotspur youngster Yago Santiago has been tipped to become a star in the Premier League very soon.

The Ange Postecoglou revolution at Spurs is in full swing, and Tottenham look really good now. They still have a few steps to go, and youngsters like Santiago could get opportunities in the future to help take the club towards the top.

Spanish media claims Yago Santiago will explode at Tottenham soon

Tottenham have a very good academy, but for one reason or another, there aren’t many who get into the first team and become stars.

The ones that are coming through now are really exciting. Jamie Donley and Alfie Dorrington are two names you’re probably already familiar with, but there are more.

One of them is 20-year-old Yago Santiago, who is having a fine campaign for Tottenham’s U21 side in the Premier League 2. The Spaniard has scored six goals and provided four assists in just nine appearances so far.

Santiago was on the bench in Spurs’ FA Cup defeat against Manchester City last week. Galicia Press in Spain start off by writing that Ange Postecoglou ‘lacked the courage’ to give the youngster his debut against Pep Guardiola‘s side.

They then turn their full focus to the Vigo-born Tottenham talent. The outlet writes that Santiago is ‘getting closer and closer’ to making his debut at Spurs having been on the bench four times already.

He has been described as a player with a ‘great change of pace’ and someone who possesses a ‘devilish’ shot, which helps him score goals.

In conclusion, the Spanish website writes that Santiago is ready to ‘shine and fly’ and ‘the Premier (League) is not prepared for what’s coming’ from the talented youngster.

Santiago unlikely to get an opportunity this season

Yago Santiago is a very good young player, and there’s a chance he may go on to achieve great things for Tottenham in the future.

However, we just can’t see how he’ll get a chance to make his debut this season.

The 20-year-old is naturally a left-winger who can play on the opposite side as well. Spurs have plenty of options out wide, and Heung-min Son will be back soon too.

That reduces the need for Santiago to be in the first team, but the fact that he has been called up by Ange Postecoglou is proof that he is on the right path at Tottenham.
