Youngster ‘really highly-rated at Spurs’ makes loan move



Tottenham youngster Kazaiah Sterling has joined Doncaster Rovers on a season-long loan.

The 20-year-old forward caught the eye for Spurs’ development side last season and the club have been keen for him to pick up more first-team experience, having previously loaned him to Sunderland.

Several clubs were keen to snap him up and the race has been won by Doncaster – much to the delight of their manager Darren Moore.

Moore told the club’s website: “Kazaiah is a forward who is really highly-rated at Spurs, they see him as a first-team player for them very soon and he just needs more experience at senior level.

“He has an excellent record at U23 level, has been recognised internationally and has scored when he has stepped up to senior level – I’m really excited to add him to my squad.

“We have had to be patient on this signing because his parent club see him as having a big role for them, we respect that but believe he can make a real impact for us this coming season.”

Sterling has yet to play in the Premier League but has made two senior appearances for Spurs.

He made his debut in a Champions League game against Apoel Nicosia in December 2017 and featured against Crystal Palace in the FA Cup last season.
