A major turning point in the football career of emerging sensation Callum Olusesi was reached when Tottenham, as part of their ongoing commitment to developing young talent, gave him a professional contract.
Ange Postecoglou has brought a lot of young youngsters into the senior Spurs group.
Recently, opportunities to practice alongside the first team were extended to Ashley Phillips, Alfie Dorrington, Alejo Veliz, Jamie Donley, and Mikey Moore as they made the move from the young side.
Another rookie, Pape Matar Sarr, has made a name for himself in the first squad this year and is quickly becoming one of Ange Postecoglou’s most vital players.
Tottenham hand Callum Olusesi a professional contract
Olusesi has officially signed his first professional contract with the club, as confirmed by the official announcement made on the club’s website.
The notice at the club said:
“We are happy to announce that Callum Olusesi has committed to the club on a professional contract for the first time.”
“After joining us on a full-time basis last summer, the 17-year-old central midfielder has continued to be a key figure in that age group this season. He featured regularly for our Under-18s in 2022/23 while still a schoolboy.”
Callum Olusesi has been impressing at the academy
In Tottenham’s academy, Callum Olusesi has already advanced to a very high level and shown his skill in teams for the U17, U18, and U19 age groups.
With eight goals and four assists in 18 games across all competitions this season, the teenager has been a standout player for Spurs’ U18 team.
Europe was interested in him because of his outstanding exploits; Romeo recently said that five European teams were after him last summer.He appears to have rejected them all, though, and agreed to a professional contract with Tottenham.
Olusesi’s signing is a big step forward for the club and the player, even though he might not be ready for first team action right away.
Nurturing players like Olusesi creates a solid basis for continued success in the years to come as Tottenham looks to the future.In related news
