Tottenham Hotspur winger Lucas Moura is optimistic the club can go on and win the Premier League.

Spurs are in third place at present, five points back from leaders City.

This weekend they face a pivotal game away to Arsenal, who are three points behind them.

£25 million signing Lucas won titles at PSG and he hopes to do the same for Tottenham.

Quoted by The Guardian, Lucas said he holds belief that Spurs can come out at the end of the season on top.

He said: “I really believe in this club and I really believe that we can win the Premier League,” Lucas said. “We can win trophies this season. I am here to help and to make history.

“It’s very, very difficult, I know. But Leicester won the Premier League, so I think we are very good and we can do this.

“In football, we never know what will happen. That’s why it’s so beautiful. We need to believe, work hard and enjoy each opportunity that we have.”

Winning away to Arsenal will help Spurs put some distance between themselves and the chasing pack, and keep the pressure on Liverpool and Manchester City.

A loss would lead them at risk of being cut adrift.

Wins against Chelsea and Inter Milan in the past week have increased optimism at Tottenham that anything is possible.
