Year 11 West Hatch High School student Charlie Freeman was awarded the best goalkeeper award when he played for Tottenham Hotspur's Under-16s in the two-day Geneva Cup.

The Spurs side played matches against Ajax Amsterdam, FC Servette and FC Mayern as well as Champions League finalists Athletico Madrid.

Charlie kept one clean sheet as his side drew 0-0 with Athletico but fared well in all others drawing 1-1 with Ajax, beating FC Mayern twice (5-1 and 3-2) but lost to Swiss outfit FC Servette 2-0.

England representative Charlie, who has already secured a scholarship for next year and will join Tottenham on a full-time basis, was also recognised as the best goalkeeper in the tournament.

He said: "The tournament was a fantastic experience and to win the goalkeeper’s award was even better. I am looking forward to next season already, once my GCSEs are out of the way."
