Tottenham Hotspur teenager Kyle Walker-Peters has expressed his excitement at being given the opportunity to sit alongside his senior team-mates and witness his team in action against Bournemouth this weekend.
The 18-year-old was named as a substitute for the match against Eddie Howe's side and though he failed to make it to the pitch, the experience in itself wasn't disappointing, according to the young right-back.
As a matter of fact, Walker-Peters is overwhelmed at having been given the opportunity and reveals that it was a learning experience for him to have watched his seniors from the sidelines for the first time.
Having been involved in a 3-0 win over Leicester City in the Under-21 Premier League at the King Power Stadium less than 48 hours prior to the Bournemouth match, the youngster insists that the feeling was one of thrill and he will only benefit from that experience in the near future.
