Tottenham new boy has not even played a Premier League game yet.
Serge Aurier has not even played for Tottenham yet, but he has already been named as the best right-back in the Premier League.
French newspaper L’Equipe has produced an XI of the best players in England’s top flight – with Aurier slotting straight in at right-back.
Aurier is one of two Tottenham players included in the XI along with two time Golden Boot winner Harry Kane.
Ivory Coast international Aurier has a high profile in France after successful spells with Toulouse and Paris Saint-Germain.
Even so this is an early positive sign for Spurs fans, that he is regarded better than the likes of Kyle Walker, Antonio Valencia and Hector Bellerin.
Aurier faces a battle to get into the Tottenham team first and foremost, ahead of Kieran Trippier.
Tottenham paid £23 million to PSG to secure his signature on deadline day.
Three Chelsea players make the XI, Eden Hazard, N’Golo Kante and David Luiz, with two Manchester United players, Eric Bailly and David de Gea.
Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho and Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez were also included, along with Manchester City’s Benjamin Mendy and Kevin de Bruyne.
