Tottenham have confirmed that 17-year-old talent Alfie Devine has signed his first professional contract with the club.

The club announced on their official club website that the striker had put pen to paper on a long-term contract with the north London club. Devine is seen as one of Tottenham’s most exciting prospects.

The teenager signed for the Premier League side last year and has since gone on to not only feature for the first-team but also score for the senior side against Marine in the FA Cup.

In doing so, Devine became both the youngest player to ever feature for Spurs in their history as well as the youngest goalscorer for the club.
