Chairman Levi abandoned Harry Kane, the worst option ever, in seven games, 10 goals and one assist, the best season of his life

Parrott's team AZ Alkmaar won 2-0 in the first round of the Europa Conference League (UECL) final qualifying round for the 2025-2026 season at Vasilevskiy Stadium in Sofia, Bulgaria on the 22nd (Korea time). Alkma had a very advantageous position in the second game at home.
Alkmaar, who finished fifth in the Netherlands' Eredivisie last season, is participating from the second round of the UECL. Parrott is the player who has been `carrying' his team since the second qualifying round. Parrott scored three goals and one assist during the first and second rounds against second qualifying opponent Ilves Tampere of Finland, putting his team in the third qualifying round. He also scored a total of three goals in the first and second games when he met FC Padutz (Switzerland), his opponent in the third qualifying round.
Parrott scored an additional goal in the 17th minute of the second half when he was leading 1-0, when he was blocked by the goalkeeper and lightly finished the ball that flowed out. Alkmaar, who clearly won the game with Parrott's additional goal, was able to return home in a good mood. Alkmaar will advance to the UECL finals unless he suffers a loss of more than three goals at home.

If Parrott is doing this well, there will be rumors of his return to Tottenham. Parrott has been regarded as a player with high potential since he was at Tottenham. In the 2021-2022 season, he began to show his skills as he left for MK Dens (then in the third division).
Parrott began to wake up to his scoring ability in earnest when he was loaned to Excelsior (the Netherlands) in the 2023-2024 season. He drew attention when he crossed the league's 10-goal mark for the first time, but Parrott decided to leave, not remain at Tottenham. Parrott, who judged it difficult to compete at Tottenham, where Son Heung-min and Hishalisson are located, decided to go to the Dutch league because he wanted to play as a main player. Parrott made a complete move to Alkmaar.

At the time, English Football London said: "'Parrott went through Tottenham's youth team but did not consistently make the Tottenham starting list. Despite being highly regarded by the youth, Parrott made only four appearances in the first team. Unfortunately for Parrott, despite the hope of following in Harry Kane's footsteps and building a career in the first team, the path was not there for Tottenham.
Since Parrott had a Selon clause when he moved to Alkmaar, Tottenham could also receive a portion of the transfer fee if Parrott moves to another team.
