Tottenham striker Will Lankshear has demonstrated to Ange Postecoglou that he is ready to make his Premier League debut.

Like Mikey Moore, Lankshear has experienced a breakthrough season in North London this year.

In fact, the striker has even gone one better than Moore, having already scored his first senior goal for the club in their 3-2 UEFA Europa League defeat against Galatasaray at RAMS Park (7 November).

While that night would ultimately end in disappointment after Lankshear was sent off, the 19-year-old was still hailed for his overall display after the match.

That appearance against Galatasaray was Lankshear's second at senior level, with both having come as starts in the Europa League this season.

Lankshear is yet to start or even appear off the bench in the Premier League. However, he has proven that he is ready for his debut in England's top flight, and Postecoglou could soon have little choice but to hand it to the forward.

Will Lankshear to make Premier League debut for Tottenham?

Lankshear is currently away on international duty with England's Men's Elite League Squad, who recorded a 4-0 win over Germany's Under-20s in the Under-20 Euro Elite League on Friday (15 November).

While the Spurs ace did not start, he would still make an impact, coming off the bench to score the Young Lions' fourth of the night during the second half.

It is now two goals in as many games for Lankshear, who only seems to be growing in confidence. As a result, Postecoglou might be considering handing the youngster his debut in the Premier League.

With Richarlison once again being ruled out with injury, and the club consequently being urged to sell him, it looks as though a spot could soon open up for Lankshear.

And the young Tottenham hopeful looks to be doing everything that he can to demonstrate to Postecoglou that he is ready to step up in North London.
