Lucas Moura maintained his stellar form for Tottenham Hotspur in pre-season.
Some Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter are tipping Lucas Moura to have an excellent first full season in the Premier League.
The Brazilian winger maintained his excellent pre-season form by rifling home a fine free kick in Saturday’s friendly away to Girona.
Tottenham went on to lose the clash 4-1 but Lucas certainly endeared himself to manager Mauricio Pochettino on a night when the Argentine manager largely used his fringe players.
The former Paris Saint-Germain man, who joined Spurs for £25 million in January, had a mixed first half-season in North London and only managed to start five games in all competitions.
But the signs are that Lucas – who earns £70,000 per week at the club [Silly Season] – could be a very big asset for Pochettino during the 2018-19 campaign and here is how some Lilywhites fans reacted to his latest performance:
It is worth pointing out that Lucas’s heroics this summer have only come in friendlies, but he is definitely making the right kind of noises and it’ll be intriguing to see how he does in competitive games this season.
Pochettino’s side kick off their Premier League season next Saturday by visiting Newcastle United.
