The Athletic now asserts that Veliz has been ‘fast-tracked’ into Postecoglou’s plans as a result of his performance in training at Hotspur Way.

Additionally, injuries have sped up the process, although Veliz is contributing by displaying promise in training.

According to the report, Postecoglou wasn’t supposed to use Veliz until the second half of the season at the earliest.

Veliz has, however, made a few substitute appearances for Spurs, entering the game against Luton Town and Liverpool for a few seconds each.

Although Veliz is only 20 and will face challenges along the way, this has been a promising beginning for him in England.

Veliz loan move in January looks unlikely

Veliz will want to play for Tottenham, but that path was blocked when he was dumped out of the Carabao Cup in the first round.

This could increase calls for Veliz to be loaned out in the January window so that he can participate in more games abroad.

Thoughts on Veliz’s potential role off the bench this season seem to be shared by Postecoglou, who appears to enjoy what he sees.

Giorgos Giakoumakis and Oh Hyeon-gyu represented muscular attackers up top, exactly like Veliz, and despite Postecoglou’s love of attractive football, he wasn’t hesitant to play with them.

for some point this season, the Argentinean will aim to make his Premier League debut and establish himself as a steal for £13 million.
