Alfie Devine Scouting Report 2024/2025: Spurs’ 20-Year-Old Midfield Hope Growing At KVC Westerlo

Over time, England has produced a lot of talent in the central midfield position, including Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, and —more recently—Jude Bellingham.

 

With Bellingham’s recent success, many teams are looking to find a midfielder who combines a central midfielder and an attacking midfielder.

 

This player can dominate the midfield and help the team in the final third.

Watching the Belgian Pro League and Westerlo, there is a young British player who fits that mould and is having a very decent season abroad: Alfie Devine.

 

Devine was part of the Liverpool academy, but the Reds decided to let go of him at age 11 when Devine joined Wigan Athletic.

 

His time at Wigan was a success, as he played with the U23s at age 15 and developed into a player who was part of the English youth national teams.

 

When Wigan went into administration in 2020, Tottenham Hotspur quickly acquired the talented midfielder, and his career did not halt thereafter.

Making his Spurs debut in 2021 at age 17 and winning the 2022 U19 Euros with the English team, Devine flourished in a more advanced position.

 

He became famous for an altercation that saw Danny Drinkwater sent off in a Premier League 2 game.

 

However, life is not a fairy tale; Devine’s career did not take off at age 17.

 

He made his breakthrough at age 19 last season, being loaned out into League One for the first half of the season and into the championship for the latter half.

 

KVC Westerlo decided to sign Devine this season after his impressive pre-season at Spurs.

 

Since then, he has been a regular for the Belgian club.

 

In this scouting report and player analysis, we will look at what makes Alfie Devine so good, where his strengths lie and where the 20-year-old will need to improve to make the next step at Spurs for Ange Postecoglou.
