It’s that man, Mason Melia again.
18-year-old Mason currently plays for St Patrick’s Athletic vs Waterford in the League Of Ireland Premier Division. On October 13, 2025, it was confirmed that Melia will join Tottenham Hotspur in January 2026 on a long-term deal, marking a major step in his career. The Athletic described him as bringing “technical quality rarely seen in the League of Ireland,” with plans for integration into Spurs’ academy and potential first-team exposure under manager Thomas Frank.
A positive mood around Melia
The mood around Melia is positive, to put it mildly. In what was likely his final home game for St Patrick’s before the move, Melia scored a “well-taken goal” in a 1-1 draw against Waterford FC at Richmond Park on October 24, 2025, bidding farewell to the stadium with a moment of magic.
Post-match, he spent time with fans, earning praise as “One Of Our Own.” Coverage highlighted the emotional send-off, with Melia signing off on a high note despite the draw. Social media buzz positions him as a promising addition to Tottenham’s squad, with fans eagerly awaiting his Premier League debut.

A stark warning in respect of Daniel Levy
Tottenham are in desperate need of fresh meat in the final third, and as the phrase goes, ‘if you’re good enough, you’re old enough.’
This season at Spurs we have suffered from the consequences of not having strikers who can not do their job. All the endless excuses have come to nothing, and the poor spending by Levy needs to be addressed.
