Transfer news: Tottenham complete the signing of PSG winger – Lucas Moura
What a signing the London club has made, as they announce the arrival of one Brazilian, Lucas Moura. A massive boost ahead of a tough week for Tottenham.
Out of favour and ready to move on, was the situation in Paris with this player and the club. PSG bragged a healthy attack, and unfortunately – he was the weakest link and expendable to a team firing on all cylinders.
Tottenham have agreed a fee in the region of £25m with Paris St-Germain for Brazil winger Lucas Moura.

What a way to charge your team’s batteries ahead of a treble of top-six fixtures. Spurs next three Premier League fixtures – proves to be a testing time for Pochettino and his squad. A match every three days for the next three weeks – makes the timing of this transfer the best ever.

Imagine being a Spurs now? You’d want to welcome a player of Moura’s quality with outstanding performances – and a great way to start is by taking the game to United – who’s added their own killer as well, Alexis Sanchez.

The fee is said to be as low as £25 million, proves the player was not at the peak of his powers and fell away to the likes of Neymar and others. This allowed Pochettino to step in acquire a reasonably, class winger.

Explosive, fast, and skills emphasising on Brazilian flair – that’s the attributes of Lucas in a nutshell. He offers loads on either side of the pitch and could be a permanent fixture ahead of the World Cup.
Personally, can’t wait to see this attacker in action – as he comes hungry to play and prove a point. Will he feature tomorrow in their home clash against, Man United? That is the question.
