Mikey Moore is a man in demand, with an array of clubs battling to earn his services for the 2026–27 season.
Moore is one of Tottenham's brightest young talents. A standout at youth level, the jinky playmaker was handed opportunities by Ange Postecoglou during his glorious second season and justified the hype with a few encouraging performances in the Europa League.
The first goal for his boyhood club arrived on a wholesome night against Elfsborg, when our burgeoning academy really came to the fore. Illness prevented Moore from contributing heavily during the second half of the season, and he subsequently went out on loan to Rangers for the 2025–26 campaign.
After a slow start, Moore came into his own at Ibrox. He thrived under Danny Röhl, and ended his loan with 11 goal contributions across 47 appearances in all competitions. Rangers supporters took the the Spurs youngster, who performs without inhibition.
The 'Gers are among those keen on reuniting with Moore for another season, but the competition is fierce.
Mikey Moore has his choice of clubs for next loan
Borussia Dortmund have thrown their hat into the ring, and Hayters understands that Hamburg, FC Köln and Middlesbrough are also interested in signing Moore on a temporary basis.
An eclectic mix, no doubt.
On the Boro links, Sam Tabuteau writes that Moore would prefer a move to one of Europe's top-five leagues. A German switch currently seems likely, and although Dortmund would offer similar perks to Rangers in terms of prestige, pressure and European nights, the 18-year-old has to consider game time.
At the moment, BVB are bereft of wide players. The risk is whether they sign potential competition after Moore joins.
A Championship loan can be perilous, and Spurs haven't exactly got a great track record of successful EFL loans in recent years. I can understand Moore's hesitance on that front, even if he'd be teaming up with former teammate Will Lankshear at the Riverside.
The teenager is currently down under with the first team, but hasn't yet caught fire to the degree Luca Williams-Barnett has. The kid, two age groups younger than Moore, is the shiny new toy every supporter is starting to rave about—essentially what Moore was two seasons ago.
While Williams-Barnett looks to be something quite special, Spurs can't forget what they've got in Moore. Such carefree playmaking isn't to be scoffed at, and the club must strike the right loan deal for him.
Rangers was a success, and don't be surprised if he winds up back at Ibrox, despite the latest reports.
