As we have already mentioned a few times, the first international break of the year is upon us. Upon the completion of league football this weekend, players will travel all over the world to play with their national teams. Whether it be in World Cup qualifiers, Nations League play offs, friendlies - or perhaps something else, there will be plenty of games for a number of players.
That is no different for Spurs players. We have already seen Ben Davies and Brennan Johnson called up to the Wales national team for World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and North Macedonia. Meanwhile, Lucas Bergvall has been called up to the Sweden national team for friendlies against Luxembourg and Northern Ireland. Kevin Danso had been called up to the Austria national team for Nations League play-off games against Serbia, but has withdrawn through injury. Spursy.
Aside from senior teams, there will also be plenty of games for age group teams. Tomorrow we will find out whether or not Archie Gray is in the England U21 squad - you would assume so, given he is not in any of the younger age group squads, and the senior team feels a little premature.
One of those younger age groups that he could still play for is England U20 - a squad that includes Tottenham Hotspur youngsters Ashley Phillips and Dane Scarlett. Despite turning 19 yesterday - Gray would also be eligible for the U19 squad - another side that included a Spurs call up.
That player is Mikey Moore, whom in the last hour or so so was officially named in the squad for the forthcoming fixtures. When the 17-year old put the gloss on things in stoppage time against Elfsborg, the fanbase became extremely excited, and hoped he would be given more opportunities to show what he can do.
For whatever reason, that has not been the case. He has played just 98 minutes of action since then, has not seen the pitch since the FA Cup defeat to Aston Villa a little over a month ago - being an unused sub for three games, and not in the squad for the other games.
So, this presents a great opportunity for him to build his match sharpness. Even more so given there are three games for the U19s this break - rather than the usual two - so a busy break is in store.
All three games will be played in the UEFA U19 Euro elite qualifying phase. Firstly, they will play away to Wales at Bangor City FC on Wednesday the 20th March, for a 19:00 GMT kick off. Then, they will play at home to Turkey, on Saturday, the 22nd of March, for an 11:00 GMT kick off, to take place at Deeside Stadium.
Then, to finish off the break, they will face Portugal, also at Deeside Stadium, on Tuesday, the 22nd of March, in a game that will also kick off at 19:00 GMT.
Also in the squad is Southampton prospect Tyler Dibling, whom has been linked with Spurs this season. It would be pretty cool to see him linking up with Moore over this break.
