Ryan Loft

Tottenham Hotspur

After playing for Dartford and Ebbsfleet United, Loft joined Tottenham Hotspur for the 2013–14 season. He scored a hat-trick for the under-18 team in a 3–0 win over Norwich City in October 2015. He moved to National League club Braintree Town on 4 March 2016 on a 'work experience' deal. Manager Danny Cowley said he was signed to provide depth to the squad and to gain experience. However, Loft did not feature for Braintree and found that Shayon Harrison was preferred by Ugo Ehiogu for the Spurs under-23 team. He signed on loan for Stevenage on 7 January 2017, remaining until the end of the 2016–17 season. Boro manager Darren Sarll compared him to a young Duncan Ferguson. Loft made his English Football League debut later that day on 7 January, in a 3–1 victory over Newport County at Broadhall Way. He featured in a total of nine League Two games for the club, all as a substitute. He scored his first goal in senior football on 15 August 2017, as Tottenham U23 drew 2–2 with Luton Town in the EFL Trophy. He returned to League Two on loan at Exeter City on 22 January 2018, where manager Paul Tisdale looked to gain "some strength in depth". The loan was to run until the end of the 2017–18 season, though he only played 45 minutes of League Two football in a 1–0 defeat to Mansfield Town at St James Park. He was released by Tottenham at the end of the 2017–18 season.

Leicester City

On 14 July 2018, Loft signed a two-year contract with Leicester City.…

Loft is a 6 feet 3 inches (1.90 m) striker who can hold the ball up front and provide a link between the midfield and attack. He described himself as "a strong powerful striker who's very quick for my size. I like being deceivingly quick as a tall player".
