“Don’t you dare sell him” – These Spurs fans react to interest in academy prospect

Having seen Harry Kane come through the ranks and take the world by storm, Tottenham are understandably excited with the prospect of Troy Parrott doing the same in the future.

The 17-year-old is highly-rated by the north London side, having scored 22 times in 32 academy appearances.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino gave him an opportunity in pre-season, and the Irishman didn’t disappoint, starring against the Turin outfit in particular.

Unsurprisingly, it appears sides across Europe have taken notice of Parrott’s development. Italian publication Calcio Mercato claim Serie A giants Juventus have joined the likes of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich in entering the race to sign the teenager.

The report adds Pochettino is against losing him however, particularly after seeing fellow Spurs youngster Marcus Edwards make his north London exit earlier this summer.

After hearing the rumours linking Parrott with a move away, Tottenham fans took to Twitter to voice their thoughts on the matter.

Many supporters of the north London side issued a hands-off message to Juventus et al and told them to “stay away” from Parrott.

Check out some of the reaction of Spurs fans below:
