Tottenham Hotspur fans have created posters asking for help finding "lost" winger Erik Lamela.

The club broke their record transfer fee to bring the 22-year-old to White Hart Lane last summer, but he has not played since New Year's Day.

The posters have been put up around North London and describe Lamela as a "much loved but hard-to-train young pet" who was last seen "walking around in a daze, looking vacant and confused".

Another fan tweeted the Metropolitan Police with a picture of the Argentine, who has been linked with a move to Italy this summer, asking to file a missing person report.
