Since Mauricio Pochettino became Tottenham Hotspur manager, the club have tended not to spend big on players in January.

However, in this window, the North London outfit made an exception by recruiting Lucas Moura from Paris Saint-Germain.

The Brazilian had previously been linked to Manchester United, but Tottenham soon became the front-runners.

Earlier today, the club announced Moura's arrival, confirming that he has signed a five-and-a-half-year deal at the club.

According to BBC Sport, Spurs parted with a fee in the region of £25m for the winger, who made just six substitute appearances for PSG this season after dropping down the pecking order.

In his four-and-a-half years at the Ligue 1 outfit, Moura scored 46 goals and created 50 assists in 229 appearances.

The former Sao Paulo star got his first taste of life as a Tottenham player when he received a warm welcome from the fans at Wembley.

The attack-minded star was presented to the crowd ahead of the team's 2-0 victory over Manchester United.

The fans in the stadium were delighted by the signing, and that mirrored the reaction on Twitter.
