Mikey Moore is one of several budding talents at Tottenham who could have a significant future.

Moore benefited from increased game time from Ange Postecoglou last season and made some vital contributions in the Europa League.

The Spurs youngster then joined Rangers in a season-long loan this summer in a bid to play more first-team football.

While he has not been at Ibrox long, the 18-year-old already has an important decision to make over his future.

Tottenham winger Mikey Moore to make call on international future

Moore already has England experience under his belt, having represented the Three Lions at four different youth levels.

At under-17 level, the forward was relentless in front of goal, while he has gone on to enjoy further success for the under-19s.

  • England under-15s: One goal in four appearances
  • England under-16s: Seven goals in 15 appearances
  • England under-17s: 10 goals in 12 appearances
  • England under-19s: Three goals in 11 appearances

However, the teenager's impact for England may soon come to an end after the latest developments.

That is because Moore is at the heart of a tug of war between England and Wales, according to The Sun on 23 September.

The publication reports that Craig Bellamy, among others, is believed to have held talks with the 18-year-old in a bid to convince him to switch allegiances.

Why is Mikey Moore eligible to play for Wales?

Moore was born in London and already has 42 appearances for England across various youth levels.

While his parents are English, the teenager would be eligible to represent Wales due to a Welsh grandparent.

Under FIFA's eligibility rules, the winger can switch his national team affiliation before he turns 21 as long as he has not made more than three senior caps for England.

If Moore were to do so, then he would follow in David Brooks and Jordan Jones' footsteps to change allegiances from England to Wales.

However, given that the Rangers loanee is still only 18 years of age, he still has ample time to make a decision.
