Youngest-Ever Town U18s Player Leaves Club
Saturday, 13th Jun 2026 10:10<\/p>\n
Academy schoolboy Eli Hall, who last season became the youngest player ever to have appeared for the Blues\u2019 U18s, has deregistered from the club. <\/p>\n
Deregistering allows academy schoolboys to end their time with a club and be free to move elsewhere with minimal compensation due to their former side even if a scholarship has previously been offered.<\/p>\n
Hall, who joined Town as a seven-year-old, became the youngest player ever to feature for the U18s in March when he played the full 90 minutes at right-back as they were beaten 4-3 at Birmingham City, aged just 14 years and 165 days old.<\/p>\n
He had spent most of his season an age group up with the U15s, while also featuring for the U16s.<\/p>\n
Hall was offered a scholarship by the Blues in November but has now opted to leave the club with Spurs understood to be in line to take him into their academy.<\/p>\n
