Leeds United sold Archie Gray to Tottenham this week for a fee of £40m and he left the club to the benefit of all involved, including his former Leeds team-mates.

The Whites have a huge hole to fill in their squad this summer as the departure of Archie Gray was confirmed this week at Tottenham.

Gray, although only 18, was a key part of the side that almost got promoted back to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

Junior Firpo sends message to Tottenham’s Pedro Porro amid Archie Gray news

Leeds have parted with Gray for £40m to make him one of the most expensive 18-year-old signings of all time this week.

He shared a heartfelt message to say goodbye to Leeds, followed by this post to react to his arrival at Tottenham, via Instagram:

“So grateful to be at this huge club, so excited for this opportunity and I can’t wait to get started and give it my all for Tottenham and play in front of you fans, see you all soon. COYS🤍💪”

Selling Archie Gray for £40m, good or bad business?

Among those wishing the midfielder well was Junior Firpo, who had a message not for Gray but for his new teammate Pedro Porro:

“Take care of him”

To which Porro replied:

“Always Brother”

Gray is set for an exciting introduction to the Premier League

Of all the managers you’d like to see Gray playing with next season, Ange Postecoglou would surely top the list.

Having sold Gray now, we can look at his move to Spurs and expect big things from him under a manager who plays attractive football in a way that suits Gray perfectly.

Of course, it would have been much better if he had stayed here, but anyway he made a very good choice for his career going forward.
