Mason Melia may not have been the name on the radar for football fans this transfer deadline day, but his £1.6m signing for Tottenham on Tuesday has definitely got people talking.
Though an unknown in England, the fee that Spurs will pay to sign the teenager from St Patrick's Athletic is already a record for a League of Ireland player, and could even rise to £3.2m in add-ons.
After making his debut as a 15-year-old, Melia has featured over 50 times in senior football in the Republic of Ireland and scored 10 goals already, courting interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs with the north London giants getting the deal over the line.
