Moura "so happy" with Tottenham move

Lucas Moura has admitted that he is excited to start a "new chapter" at Tottenham Hotspur.

The Brazilian finalised a £25m switch to the North London outfit from Paris Saint-Germain on transfer deadline day.

The winger, who has previously been linked to Manchester United, dropped down the pecking order at Parc des Princes and was limited to just 72 minutes of Ligue 1 action across five substitute appearances this season.

In an interview with Tottenham's official website, Moura said: "I'm so, so happy. It's a new chapter in my life, a new challenge for me. I've joined a big club with big players and I look forward to playing and helping the team.

"I can play in the Champions League, which is a big objective for me and to make new friends is always a pleasure. I will give my best for this club. I think we have a lot of quality and I think we can win big things."

The 25-year-old was presented to the Spurs crowd prior to the team's 2-0 victory over Manchester United at Wembley on Wednesday evening.
