A number of Tottenham fans have waxed lyrical about Spurs talent Dilan Markanday after he won the latest Premier League 2 Player of the Month award.

The 20-year-old is one of the most highly-rated youngsters in the Tottenham academy and has been a cut above for Spurs Under-23s this term.

Markanday has a staggering 10 goals and two assists from just 10 PL2 appearances this season.

He also has a further two assists from three Papa John’s Trophy appearances in 2020-21.

Markanday’s October was especially fruitful, scoring four goals in as many games over the course of last month.

In addition, he made his Tottenham first-team debut away to Vitesse in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Markanday saw off competition from Jamal Baptiste, Anthony Elanga, Ziyad Larkeche, Salah-Eddine Oulad M’Hand, Aaron Ramsey and Dynel Simeu to land the prize.

And some Spurs fans are optimistic that their academy star has a bright future ahead of him at N17:

Spurs U23s are next in action on Monday 22 November when they take on Leicester away in a 7pm PL2 kickoff.
