The Brazilian joined Tottenham Hotspur during last year’s January transfer window.
Lucas Moura sat down for an exclusive interview with Goal, and shared the two main reasons why he left Paris Saint-Germain for Tottenham last January.
The Brazilian moved to north London from Paris in a deal believed to be worth somewhere in the region of £23 million, according to BBC Sport.
Moura has gone on to chalk up nine goals and six assists in 44 appearances in all competitions for Spurs, but there is definitely more to come from the pacey forward.
The 26-year-old has already proven that he can offer Tottenham something different int he final third, and the next step for him will be to nail down a regular starting spot in Mauricio Pochetitno’s side.
Moura spoke exclusively to Goal, and opened up the two reasons why he chose to leave the Parc des Princes for Spurs last year:
“Two things helped me decide to sign for Tottenham. The main thing was that I was not playing, sometimes not even in the squad. Besides that, I felt it was time to move on. I learned a lot in the five years at PSG, but it was time to look for new challenges. The Premier League has always been a great goal, a big dream. I am very happy at the moment. Playing in England has been a really good experience.”
Harry Kane is currently out injured, so the Brazilian has been getting more opportunities to start games of late, and he absolutely must not disappoint, if he expects to remain in the team when the England international returns to the fold.
