Young goalkeeper Luca Gunter has returned to Tottenham Hotspur after his loan at Boreham Wood was ended. The 21-year-old England youth international made 13 appearances for the Wood, starting 11 matches, during a stint that began in July.
Gunter made his competitive debut at Meadow Park against Tamworth and featured in pre-season, going on to contribute to victories over Carlisle United, Scunthorpe United, and Harrogate Town. He also kept clean sheets in away wins at Forest Green Rovers and Solihull Moors. His recall provides Tottenham with additional depth, as he has previously been named on the bench for two of their first-team fixtures.
Boreham Wood confirmed the departure as they continue their push at the summit of the National League. The club sits first with 35 points from 13 games, claiming an 11-match unbeaten start to the season and a current five-game winning streak. They hold a seven-point lead over second-placed Harrogate Town and have scored 34 goals while conceding just 13. This formidable record of eleven wins and two draws from thirteen games has been built on a recent run of five consecutive victories, the latest of which was a 7-1 demolition of Middlesbrough U21s on Tuesday 20 October.
Gunter's contributions came during a period of strong form, including last week's 7-1 victory over Middlesbrough U21s. His recall means manager Luke Garrard will now look to his other goalkeeping options ahead of the next match. Boreham Wood host AFC Fylde at Meadow Park this Saturday 24 October, with the visitors currently seventh in the standings. The team's recent form, comprising five wins and no draws or losses, saw them follow the Middlesbrough result with a 3-2 win over Woking on Saturday 17 October, a 2-0 victory at Sutton United, and 3-1 home wins against Altrincham and Kidderminster Harriers.
