Tottenham Hotspur have ended their long wait for silverware – and Mikey Moore believes they are only just getting started, after a bold Champions League claim.
Indeed, it was the perfect end to the 2024/25 season for Tottenham Hotspur, who brought the curtain down on their campaign with a piece of silverware firmly in hand.
The Lilywhites got their hands on a European trophy for the fourth time in their history after beating Manchester United 1-0 at the San Mames Stadium in Spain in the UEFA Europa League final.
Their latest triumph ended the club’s 17-year wait for a trophy and brought to a close a 41-year drought in European competition, with their last continental success coming back in 1984.
Mikey Moore makes bold Tottenham Champions League claim
Spurs‘ Europa League success has not only delivered silverware, it has also secured the club’s return to Europe’s elite competition, as UEFA Champions League football is back on the cards in N17.
It has been three years since the Lilywhites last featured in the Champions League, but teenager Mikey Moore has wasted no time in outlining the ambition within the camp.
Speaking in the aftermath of their Europa League win, the Tottenham youngster made a punchy declaration about the club’s next target, stating that their focus is already on lifting the Champions League trophy.
He told the club’s official social media account: “We want more. We want more, we want to win the biggest trophies possible. That is what we want – Champions League next year. We are going to try our very best to go and win it. We do not just want to be in it.”
Spurs mentality shift clear in Mikey Moore’s Champions League ambition
The mentality at Hotspur Way is undoubtedly shifting, and Mikey Moore’s statement is a perfect reflection of that renewed sense of belief following the Europa League triumph.
There is a growing conviction amongst the players and supporters alike – an expectation that every tournament is now an opportunity to win, rather than just participate – a mindset that has been sorely missing in recent seasons.
Before the Lilywhites kick off their Champions League journey next season, they will have the opportunity to test themselves against the winners of this year’s competition when they play the UEFA Super Cup, perhaps that might be another trophy added to Spurs’ cabinet.
