Tottenham consider January loan recall for Mikey Moore amid Rangers return talk

According to a report from England, Tottenham are seriously considering terminating Mikey Moore’s loan at 1. FC Köln in January, with a potential return to Rangers FC being discussed for the youngster.

Expectations were high when Mikey Moore joined 1. FC Köln on loan from Tottenham Hotspur towards the end of the summer transfer window, but the 19-year-old’s spell in Germany hasn’t gone according to plan so far.

Moore is still waiting for his first goal in Germany, having started six of the nine games he has played in all competitions for the Billy Goats.

Given Moore’s struggles to establish himself in the Bundesliga, Tottenham and Köln could agree to terminate his loan six months early in January, according to a report from TEAMtalk.

Such a move would allow Spurs to explore alternative options for the teenager in a bid to find him a destination that would be a better fit than Köln has been so far.

Moore enjoyed great success at Rangers last season, but the Scottish side are not actively pursuing a return for him. Nevertheless, should his loan spell be terminated early, both Moore and Rangers “would be forced to consider it”, the report suggests.

No decision will be made just yet, however, with Moore’s form between now and the January transfer window set to influence what happens next.
