England’s captain for the most recent UEFA under-16 development tournament in San Pedro Del Pinatar, Malachi Hardy, is one the most highly regarded prospects in Tottenham’s academy ranks. The young defender has been at the club since the age of nine, consistently playing several years up thanks to a combination of outstanding physical and technical attributes. Hardy is set to be rewarded for his impressive performances by signing a two-year scholarship with Spurs next season, becoming an established member of the Lilywhite’s under-18 squad. Malachi made his debut for Tottenham under-18s against Burnley earlier this season but has since only managed one subsequent appearance in a 6-1 victory over Reading.

Hardy is tailor-made for the modern high-pressing sides dominating today’s game, boasting impressive recovery pace and a proactive, front-footed defensive style. The defender is beginning to fill out his sizable frame, standing at 189cm, and possesses a robust physical base, making him a proficient duel winner, especially in the air. Perhaps Hardy’s biggest strength is his one-on-one ability, thanks to a strong grasp for body positioning as well as an intelligent reading of his opponent’s body language and intentions. Like an increasing proportion of modern centre-backs, Hardy is a confident ball player, equally capable of progressing through passes and carries. All things considered, England’s towering captain has a clear future in the game, possessing many desirable attributes synonymous with top-level modern centre-backs.

Blake Irow - gk
Dylan Thomson (u18 bench the other day) - gk
Malachi Hardy - cb
Miracle Adewole - rb/rw
Tynan Thompson - LW

I think we are trying to get something like 14 in for next season, so still a few to go - although I think I know who they may be from previous u15 and u16 tournaments, but we'll see !.

Last u21 Squad
Gunter, Ashcroft (John 66), Kyerematen, Sayers, Cassanova, Abbott (c), Soonsup-Bell (Williams 90), Hall, Lankshear, Donley, Santiago.

With 3 fixtures over next week being more congested than the usual one a week, we may see a little more squad rotation.
