Despite his youth, Moody has been making waves in the Under-18s Premier League, racking up eight appearances for the Saints this season.
His impressive performances haven’t gone unnoticed—he recently earned a spot in Southampton’s travelling squad for their recent trip to Aston Villa, an unexpected opportunity that came courtesy of his stellar play catching the eye of Premier League boss Russell Martin.
