Who is Japhet Tanganga and how old is Tottenham starlet who is starting against Liverpool? – The Sun
TOTTENHAM have unleashed wonderkid Japhet Tanganga against Liverpool.
He follows the likes of Harry Kane, Harry Winks and Kyle Walker-Peters in coming through the academy in recent years.
Who is Japhet Tanganga?
The Hackney-born defender has been at Tottenham since he was ten years old, formerly turning out for Greig City Academy.
Tanganga has made a significant rise through the youth ranks and has been rewarded with a start under Jose Mourinho.
The centre-back is also revered on the international stage, helping the England under-20s to win the Toulon Tournament in 2017.
How old is he?
Tanganga was born on March 31, 1999 – making him 20 years old.
Despite his young age, he is being reported as potential back-up option to add depth to Spurs' side should star defender Toby Alderweireld depart this summer.
He would certainly be a good and cheap addition to the squad, becoming known for his height and aerial ability.
