West Ham United midfielder, Declan Rice, has reacted with delight to Joe Hart’s surprising Tottenham move by stating on Instagram that ‘you deserve this more than anyone’.
Rice wasn’t the only player reacting to Tottenham’s new signing, with Kyle Walker also sending his ‘congrats’ and Nigel de Jong stating that ‘you love to see it’.
When the recently concluded Premier League came to an end, not many would have expected Hart, who had been released from Burnley, to make a switch to Spurs.
But the former England number one has done just that and he has had quite a lot of well-wishers who are hoping it goes well for him in North London.
Rice’s message to Hart in full wrote: ‘You deserve this more than anyone brother! Can’t wait to see ya’.
Tottenham Hotspur’s summer signings

Free
- Matt Doherty
£13 million; Wolves
- Sergio Reguilon
£25 million; Real Madrid
- Gareth Bale
Loan; Real Madrid
- Carlos Vinicius
Loan; Benfica
- Joe Rodon
£12 million; Swansea
It will be interesting to see how much game time Hart gets under Jose Mourinho’s wing and whether he would allow the former Manchester City man to really push for a number one spot.
Hugo Lloris is the main guy between the sticks for the Europa League outfit, with Paulo Gazzaniga also at the club.
One thing is for sure, Hart will bring a winning mentality to Tottenham’s dressing room and that’s required if the club are to push to another level and win a trophy.
