Tottenham Hotspur’s Serge Aurier praised by teammate Moussa Sissoko.
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Moussa Sissoko has praised new signing Serge Aurier as exactly what the team need.
Aurier joined from Paris Saint-Germain on deadline day and is a former Toulouse teammate of Sissoko.
Quoted by Le10Sport, Sissoko said that Aurier has already become a popular figure at his new club.
He said: “Serge is a very good recruit for us. His adaptation went well. He got into the team. We were very pleased to welcome him.
“He is a very high quality player, he will add to this team as we lost an important element with Kyle Walker.
“He’s a plus for the team. He brings a lot of freshness, good mood in the team. He is very appreciated by all his team-mates.”
Aurier has had a mixed start at Spurs, playing very well when he has featured, but ruined his first month with a disappointing red card against West Ham which nearly cost his team.
Kieran Trippier has got back into the team at right-back in his absence and played very well, leaving Mauricio Pochettino with a big decision coming up for Tottenham’s upcoming visit to Real Madrid.
Next up for the North London side is a home game against Bournemouth, a game Aurier will be eligible to return for.
