Tottenham Hotspur
Moore moved to Tottenham Hotspur to finish his development as a U9.[3][4] For the 2022–23 season, he was part of the trophy-winning Tottenham Hotspur U17s, the U18s, played for the U19s in the UEFA Youth League, and was one of their youngest ever players to debut U21s at the age of 15.[5] He helped Tottenham win the U17 and U18 Premier League cups that season.[6] On 17 June 2023, Moore signed a schoolboy contract with Tottenham Hotspur.[7][8] He was named by English newspaper The Guardian as one of the best first year scholars in the Premier League in October 2023.[9]
On 14 May 2024, Moore made his first team debut in a 2–0 home defeat against Manchester City, becoming the youngest Tottenham player to play in the Premier League at the age of 16 years and 277 days, surpassing Dane Scarlett's record.[10]
Moore signed a three-year professional contract with Tottenham on 12 August 2024, the day after his 17th birthday.[11][12]
On 26 September 2024, Moore made his European debut in a 3–0 home win over Qarabağ FK in the UEFA Europa League and later made his first senior start in a 2–1 away victory against Ferencváros a few days later on 3 October 2024 and remained on the pitch the entire match.[13][14] He made his second start for the club in the same competition, earning praise from teammate James Maddison, who compared Moore to Neymar.[15][16]
On 27 October 2024, Moore made his first Premier League start in a 1–0 away loss to Crystal Palace, playing 62 minutes before being substituted for Timo Werner. At 17 years, 77 days, Moore became the youngest player to start in a Premier League match for Tottenham since Stephen Carr started against Ipswich Town in September 1993.[17][18] Three days later on 30 October 2024, Moore made his EFL Cup debut in a 2–1 home win against Manchester City, being brought on for Brennan Johnson in the 68th minute.[19]
On 30 January 2025, Moore won possession back 32 metres from goal, beat two defenders, and slotted the football into the bottom corner of the opposition's net, scoring his first senior goal in dramatic fashion with the last kick of the match in a 3-0 win over IF Elfsborg in the UEFA Europa League. At 17 years and 172 days old, Moore became England's youngest-ever scorer in a major European competition, breaking Spurs legend Jimmy Greaves' record (17 years 245 days) set in 1957.[20][21] Moore remained on the bench as an unused substitute during the 2025 UEFA Europa League final as Tottenham beat Manchester United to win their first trophy since 2008.[22]
Rangers loan
On 1 August 2025, Moore joined Scottish Premiership side Rangers on a season-long loan for the 2025–26 season.[23][24]
