Lucas Moura scored his first Premier League goal for Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Lucas Moura has been tipped by plenty of pundits and Tottenham Hotspur fans to have a big season.
The Brazilian winger showcased his undoubted class during pre-season after a lukewarm first six months at Spurs, since joining from Paris Saint-Germain in January.
And it looks like the Tottenham man might finally be ready to show what he can do on bigger stages after opening the scoring for Mauricio Pochettino’s side on Saturday.
Lucas curled home a wonderful opener in yesterday’s 3-1 win over Fulham at Wembley, having struggled in the Lilywhites’ curtain raiser at Newcastle last weekend.
But this was a lot more like it from the man who cost Tottenham £25 million earlier this year [The Telegraph] and PSG’s official Twitter account has even congratulated him on what was his first Premier League goal.
The tweet translates as ‘Champion, my brother!’ and it is a nice touch by the Ligue 1 giants.
Lucas, who earns £75,000 per week in North London [Silly Season], spent five years in the French capital and helped the big-spending outfit win 11 major trophies – including five Ligue 1 titles.
