Tim Sherwood has expressed his pride after being named the new manager of Tottenham Hotspur.
The 44-year-old signed a permanent contract with the club on Monday night following the recent sacking of Andre Villas-Boas.
The former midfielder's terms at White Hart Lane are due to expire at the end of the 2014-15 season.
"It's an honour to be head coach of this top club," Sherwood told Tottenham's official website. "It's a club that means an awful lot to me and it's a proud moment.
"I've known it from the grass roots right up towards the first team, worked at every level of the football club and played here, so I know it better than most and hopefully that will stand me in good stead taking this club forward."
Spurs return to Premier League action on Boxing Day when they play host to West Bromwich Albion.
