“Absolutely no chance,” Robinson stated in the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast.

Gray’s Summer Move to Tottenham

The 18-year-old versatile player joined Tottenham from Leeds United during the summer transfer window for a reported £30 million. Since then, Gray has accumulated 581 minutes of playing time.

Career Progression On Track

Gray’s adaptability has been impressive, featuring in various positions, including:

  1. Centre-back
  2. Right-back
  3. Midfield

Opportunities in European games have also aided Gray’s development.
