Ex-Spurs starlet who Pochettino gave Premier League debut left unemployed at 26

FORMER Tottenham midfielder Luke Amos has been released by QPR following the expiration of his contract.

The 26-year-old signed a three-year deal with the Championship outfit in 2020.

He has gone on to rack up 95 appearances for the club – including 21 this season.

But he has not penned a new deal and has now been confirmed as one of six players released by the second-tier side.

Leon Balogun, Olamide Shodipo, Conor Masterson, Charlie Owens and Ody Alfa have also departed Loftus Road.

Amos came through Spurs’ academy and was first included in Mauricio Pochettino’s squad in a 2-1 League Cup defeat to Liverpool in October 2016.

He then had to wait two years for his Tottenham debut.

It eventually came when Pochettino sent him on in the 88th minute of a 2-1 win over Newcastle at St James’ Park in August 2018.

The following month he signed a new deal to keep him in North London until 2021.

But four weeks later he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament in a reserve team match.

Once he had gone through a lengthy recovery process, he was loaned out to QPR in the summer of 2019.

He made 34 league appearances for the club during his season-long loan spell.

And that convinced the club to sign him on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee.

But just two months after agreeing a deal with QPR, he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament for a second time.

He returned in 2021 and racked up more than 50 games over the course of the next two campaigns.

But now he is searching for a new club less than three months after his 26th birthday.
