Will he appear in Tottenham's first team before Yang Min-hyuk. Director Thomas Frank left a significant notice.
Coach Frank attended a pre-press conference ahead of the third round of the 2025-2026 League Cup against Doncaster Rovers on the 23rd (Korea time). The League Cup, an opportunity for Tottenham to add another trophy this season, and Tottenham's showdown with Doncaster, which is somewhat inferior, is also a place to give various players a chance.
Tottenham is currently playing the European Champions League schedule along with the English Premier League (EPL), so it is a bit of a burden to have a large number of key players play in this League Cup game. Time may go back to some young players and new faces.
Frank said, `I think it's a really good opportunity to have young players on the bench. It's also an honor to be able to give someone their debut. Of course, you have to show your ability in the team to get a chance."

One of the players who is drawing attention as attention is focused on whether young players will make their debuts is Takai Kota. Takai, who turned 21 in September this year, is over 190 centimeters tall, has a solid physicality, and has the right to provide. He is Japan's best defensive prospect, contributing to a large part of the build-up due to his good pass ability and having the ability of promising defenders such as forward dribbling. He has already gained considerable experience as a professional player in his fourth year on the Japanese stage, and has been active in the Japanese national team since September last year.
Dakai wore a Tottenham jersey this summer. I've been growing slowly since the preseason. This season Tottenham left Takai in the team without sending him on loan. This means that there is a possibility of using it. However, Takai has not played yet. A League Cup match against Doncaster could be an opportunity for Takai. Main center backs Christian Romero and Mickey van der Pen played a lot of time, so rest is likely. There is a good chance that Takai will be given even a little time to play.

If Takai plays in Tottenham's first team, he can make his official debut in Tottenham's first team before Yang Min-hyuk, who joined Tottenham in December last year. Tottenham Legacy Number can also be received first. It is an indicator of their place in Tottenham's history with the numbers they provide to all the players who have played so far at Tottenham. All the players who have played in Tottenham's first-team official game have received their own numbers. Takai can receive the number 900 depending on the situation.
Meanwhile, Yang Min-hyuk is going through a difficult time as he left for Portsmouth on loan this season. He has disappeared since struggling in his debut in the Portsmouth League. Recently, he was completely excluded from the game list due to injury.
