Transfer Deadline Day: Lucas Moura: Tottenham Sign Paris St-Germain Winger Lucas Moura For £25m

Tottenham have signed Paris St-Germain winger Lucas Moura for a fee in the region of £25m. The 25-year-old Brazilian, who has signed a contract until 2023, becomes Spurs’ fifth most expensive signing.Lucas joined PSG for £33.5m from Sao Paulo in 2013 but has made just six substitute appearances this season. “It’s a new chapter of my life, a new challenge. I’m so happy. It’s a big club and I need to enjoy it, work hard and show my quality,” he said.“I will give my best for this club because I think we have a lot of quality and we can win big things. Why not the Champions League?” Lucas – who will wear the number 27 shirt for Spurs – scored 46 goals and contributed 50 assists in 229 appearances for the French club.He has not featured in this season’s Champions League for PSG, and is therefore available for Spurs in the knockout stage. Spurs have only spent more on record signing Davinson Sanchez – who joined for a reported £42m from Ajax in August – Moussa Sissoko,Erik Lamela and Roberto Soldado.Photo Credit: Getty
