Rangers have confirmed the signing of Tottenham Hotspur youngster Mikey Moore on a season-long loan deal.
The deal – which is subject to international clearance – does not include an option or an obligation to buy the 17-year-old who has progressed through Spurs’ ranks since the age of seven.
Moore, who can play across the front line as a winger or a No 10, is considered one of Tottenham’s most exciting prospects.
The England U19 international became the youngest Spurs player to feature in the Premier League just over a year ago, and has made 12 league appearances.
Moore also played five times during Tottenham’s Europa League-winning campaign and scored his first goal for the club in a group-stage victory over Elfsborg.
He becomes Rangers’ and new head coach Russell Martin’s eighth signing of the summer, following loan deals for Nasser Djiga and Max Aarons and permanent transfers Lyall Cameron, Emmanuel Fernandez, Joe Rothwell, Thelo Aasgaard and Djeidi Gassama.

Speaking after signing for the Ibrox club on a season-long loan, Moore said: “I’m excited to get going. As soon as I heard Rangers were interested and wanted me to come, it was a massive opportunity for me.
“I’m excited to be here and hopefully I can show the fans and everyone what I can do.
“I’ve always loved Rangers as a club. My family have always loved them.
“I think with the new boss and the way that we play, it’s a great place to be at the minute. It was a pretty easy decision for me to come here.”

Martin added: “We are thrilled to bring Mikey on loan for this season.
“His profile as a brave, aggressive attacking player is one that we were keen to add to the squad, and he is certainly a player who, despite his age, can make an impact on the team from day one.
“He is a player with huge potential, and it is testament to his quality that he has been entrusted by Spurs in both the Premier League and UEFA Europa League with such regularity over the last 18 months.”
Sporting director Kevin Thelwell said: “It is no secret that there was significant interest from elsewhere in Mikey and we are delighted that he has chosen Rangers at this stage in his career.
“He rose to prominence with Spurs last year and it is a reflection of his temperament and quality as a player that he made an immediate impact at a senior level which demands the best.
“We are convinced that Mikey is a player who will enhance our attacking unit. He is stepping into an ambitious, demanding environment that will test him, support him, and provide the platform to deliver and fulfil his potential, to the benefit of both himself and the club.”
