Tottenham Hotspur have snapped up James Maddison and former Spurs ace Lucas Moura has given his approval to the move.
Lucas Moura is delighted to see that Tottenham Hotspur have brought in Leicester City playmaker James Maddison.
Tottenham are ramping up their recruitment plans this week as they look to back new manager Ange Postecoglou.
Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario has completed a move from Empoli and looks set to be Tottenham’s new stopper for years to come.
Spurs have followed that up with a move for Maddison, completing the signing of the Leicester City star in a deal worth around £40million.
Maddison has penned a five-year deal with Tottenham following Leicester’s relegation from the Premier League.
The 26-year-old looks to be the perfect signing for Postecoglou’s style of play and will provide real creativity from midfield.
Harry Winks looks set to go in the opposite direction with a move to Leicester as Tottenham secure a big signing and prepare to offload an unwanted player.
Lucas Moura delighted with James Maddison to Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham confirmed the deal on Wednesday night with Maddison being presented as a new Spurs player.
Spurs fans generally seem very happy with the move, believing that Maddison can finally be the replacement for Christian Eriksen.
It’s four years since Eriksen left the club but Tottenham have really lacked his creative spark ever since.
One man who was at Tottenham when Eriksen departed is Lucas Moura, and he has now shared his reaction to the Maddison move.
Moura took to the comments of Tottenham’s Instagram page to claim that Maddison is a ‘great signing’, celebrating the deal.
Moura has been let go by Tottenham this summer but it’s clear that the Brazilian will continue to keep an eye on Spurs.
Maddison is clearly the kind of signing that Moura wants to see at Tottenham, and that sentiment appears to be shared by the Spurs fanbase.
