Having joined Sheffield United in January, 2021, from Arsenal, Lankshear captained the Blades' Under-18 side as they claimed the Professional Development League national title last term following an impressive unbeaten campaign.

Tottenham signed Lankshear for £2m after fending off rival Premier League interest.

Brentford were also interested in the highly-rated 17-year-old, but Spurs are understood to have 'blown the Bees out of the water with a hugely attractive offer'.
