Tottenham Hotspur has officially confirmed that 17-year-old Mikey Moore will join Rangers on a season-long loan. The highly-rated teenager will continue his development in the Scottish Premiership. This move allows the young player to gain valuable first-team experience. The club hopes this loan supports his growth and prepares him for future challenges.
Tottenham Hotspur are currently in Asia for their pre-season tour. The squad is preparing for the upcoming campaign with matches against Arsenal and Newcastle United. However, Mikey Moore was excluded from the tour to facilitate a potential loan move this summer. Now, that move has been finalized.

Reports surfaced on July 28 that Rangers were the frontrunners to sign Moore. The Scottish side was identified as his most likely destination. Now, Tottenham Hotspur have officially confirmed the loan. Mikey Moore is set to spend the 2025/26 season at Rangers.
The 17-year-old debuted for Tottenham in October 2024 against Manchester City. He has made 21 appearances for Tottenham since then. At the time of his debut, he became the youngest player to represent Tottenham in the Premier League. He was just 16 years, nine months, and three days old.
Champions League experience awaits Mikey Moore at Rangers
Rangers beat off interest from several Championship clubs to secure Moore’s signature. The talented attacker will gain valuable first-team experience at a major Scottish club. Crucially, Rangers will also be involved in Champions League football this season. This provides an excellent platform for Moore’s development.
Thomas Frank spoke about a potential loan move last week, praising Moore and his potential at Tottenham. He emphasized the importance of consistent first-team football for young players. Frank stated that finding the right loan option would be beneficial for Moore’s development.
Thomas Frank emphasizes importance of gametime for Tottenham Hotspur prospect
“It is very important. Mikey is a big talent. I am really excited about his future here at Tottenham. I think for all players, but especially younger players, they need consistent first-team football into their bodies and I think if we can find the right option, we will do that.” Frank said last week.
Moore joins Ashley Phillips and Alejo Veliz as young Tottenham players out on loan. Reports suggested Moore wanted a loan move this summer for more gametime. Tottenham granted his wish to support his development. Spurs are planning to offer Moore a new deal when he turns 18.
The club hopes Moore will be ready to challenge for a place in Thomas Frank’s first-team squad upon his return next season. This loan move is seen as a crucial step in his progression. It will be vital for his chances of breaking into the Tottenham Hotspur first team in the future.
