Tottenham star has become a hero.
It’s still quite difficult to put into words exactly the magnitude of what Lucas Moura did for Tottenham in midweek.
Supported by his teammates, Lucas’ individual brilliance dragged Tottenham into the Champions League final, scoring a sensational second half hat-trick.
It will go down as one of the great individual Champions League performances of all time.
Signed for £25 million in January 2018, he remains the last player Tottenham signed.
He has the chance to become one of Tottenham’s best ever signings.
To do so, Lucas has to kick on from here and build on what he has done.
The Brazilian had even before this, established himself as a big game player.
He scored a brace against Manchester United, netted away at Barcelona, and also scored at Anfield in Tottenham’s narrow loss to Liverpool.
This is his first full season for Tottenham, and he has already repaid the fee the club paid, and then some.
If he continues to deliver, he will be rightly regarded up there with Tottenham’s best.
