Bayern Munich wonderkid Joshua Zirkzee put himself in the shop window on Tuesday afternoon as his German club thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 in the UEFA Youth League. According to reports emanating from the British press, representatives from Arsenal and Juventus closely monitored proceedings at the Tottenham Training Centre - Enfield. At least one talent spotter representing Scottish club Hibernians F.C. was also in attendance to run the rule over the top starlets.
Günther (2), Mosandl and Zirkzee found the net for Bayern Munich and Rodel Richards scored a consolation goal for the North London team. Though the identities of the players the scouts came to watch were not revealed, Zirkzee was heavily courted by Arsenal, Manchester United and Everton before he chose to join Bayern Munich in the summer of 2017.
A product of Feyenoord, the prolific striker has scored 40 goals in 66 appearances for Bayern Munich's youth teams while providing 20 assists. Goalkeeper Joshua Oluwayemi, defender Timothy Eyoma and striker Kion Etete featured for Tottenham Hotspur U19s in yesterday's game.
