From the source

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly planning to keep highly rated youngster Luca Williams-Barnett, with Roberto De Zerbi keen to give the teenager more first-team opportunities. The 18-year-old has attracted considerable attention following his recent performances, and his future at the North London club could now take a different direction ahead of the January transfer window.

According to a report from Football Insider, Tottenham are increasingly inclined to retain Williams-Barnett rather than loan him out midway through the season. 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace, delivering an encouraging cameo off the bench.

His performance has reportedly strengthened the case for greater involvement, with De Zerbi keen to keep him within the senior setup for the remainder of the campaign.
