Troy Archibald-Henville (born 4 November, 1988) is an English football player currently playing for Exeter City on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.

Career

Archibald-Henville joined Tottenham full-time in 2005 after a successful spell towards the end of the 2004-05 season. He made the step up to the Reserves in 2007 making 15 appearances in total, scoring two goals. His impressive performances earned him the captain's armband for the reserves. He has also been on the bench on two occasions for the first team including the North London derby at Arsenal in December 2007.

For the 2008-2009 season Norwich City took Archibald-Henville on what was initially a season long loan, but he returned to Tottenham without making a league appearance.[1] On 20 January Archibald-Henville signed on loan for Exeter City[2] and was placed immediately into the squad for the nights match at Dagenham and Redbridge in which he helped to win the game 2-1 for his debut.[3] During his time there, Troy was hailed as "terrific" by Exeter City boss Paul Tisdale.[4]

At the end of the Grecians successful 2008/09 season which saw them win promotion to Coca Cola League One, Troy returned to his parent club in a bid to win a new contract with Spurs. He signed a new deal at Spurs but in July 2009 signed a 6 month loan deal with Exeter City after manager Paul Tisdale stated his desire to bring Troy back to Devon for another loan spell.
