Tottenham's new 16 year old signing John Bostock has revealed he is delighted to join Tottenham; but stressed the move from Crystal Palace was not just purely about money. As revealed on eyefootball.com, Bostock is near to a switch to Tottenham.
"I don't know if Palace fans will ever be able to understand why a genuine Palace supporter left the club, but I was frustrated with the way I was playing under the style of football at the club," said Bostock, who has been with Palace since the the age of six.
"When I made my debut against Watford, I was ready to commit my future to Palace and could see myself playing a hundred games in no time, but I was stagnating. I need to be at a club where I can continue my development," he added, in a revealing interview with Sportsmail yesterday.
"Tottenham have always shown a lot of interest and I believe I will be pushed to improve my game. In the youth team at Palace, it is too easy. Even though most of the players are two years older than me, it is not a challenge. In my last game for the club, against Watford (youth), I scored two and it was just too easy.
"I like Tottenham's playing style, I will be training with the first team and playing for the reserves in my first season. I could have gone to big clubs, like Chelsea or Barcelona, but Spurs offers me the best career progression. That is my belief."
