Tottenham winger talks about their Champions League chances.
Tottenham Hotspur winger Erik Lamela has told Argentine newspaper Ole that it is an honour to play alongside striker Harry Kane.
Lamela was discussing Tottenham’s chances of getting out of their Champions League group.
He believes that with Kane, they can get past Barcelona, Inter and PSV.
Lamela said: “The Champions League group is one of the most complicated groups of the competition, but we have a lot of hope to pass the round, since we have very important players like Harry Kane, playing next to him is a privilege.”
Lamela talked about his hopes of getting recalled to the Argentina national team, having missed out on the World Cup.
He said: “If I want to have an opportunity in the Argentine national team I need to play in my team and doing it in a good way.”
The winger has begun the season on the fringes of Tottenham’s first team, playing only 17 minutes of the club’s matches so far.
His absence has been down to injury, caused to miss out on the squad which faced Watford at the weekend.
The excellent form of Lucas Moura has made it even tougher for him to get back in, and Heung-Min Son’s return will make the competition even tougher.
