Wilson Odobert is yet to really make his mark at Tottenham Hotspur following his move from Burnley back in 2024.

The French winger has shown small flashes of brilliance since his £25 million move to North London; however, many fans are still demanding much more from him.

The Spurs youngster suffered an ACL injury back in February during a defeat at home to Newcastle United and has been sidelined since.

But Odobert is now close to being back available for the Lilywhites, and he could actually prove to be a useful asset for Roberto De Zerbi.

Van de Ven has just been speaking very highly of the 21-year-old, and his comments prove how underrated he actually is in North London.

Van de Ven has just named Odobert as the most skilful player in the squad at Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs have some very skilful players in their squad, like Xavi Simons, Mathys Tel, Mohammed Kudus and Savinho, but Odobert is the captain's pick.

The 21-year-old has proven himself to be a tricky winger at Spurs, but we are yet to really see him at his best.

During his time at Burnley, he also showed his quality, but once he returns, it is time for him to start delivering.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Van de Ven said: "Odobert, but he is injured right now... But I will say Wilson is for sure up there! His feet are so quick, and just technical-wise he's just a top player."

Odobert has just five goals and five assists in 54 matches for Spurs, so his output must increase.

But under a manager like De Zerbi, we could see his performances reach another level, as he is the perfect fit for his system.

The French youth interntaional is a terrific ball carrier, just like many of Spurs' current wingers, including Tel, Kudus and Savinho.

Odobert has really been stepping up his recovery from an ACL injury by returning to training on the grass.

The Frenchman will need to start playing some Under-21 games before returning to the first team, but that could come very soon.

Meanwhile, Simons is not far behind him either, along with Savinho and Lucas Bergvall, who are both due back after the international break.

However, it looks like bad news for Tel, whose injury against Leeds United appears to be fairly serious.

De Zerni revealed that it looks like a 'bad injury' after the match, and Spurs should be fuming that there was no punishment for the foul.
