Estudiantes defender Juan Foyth has confirmed he's joining Tottenham.

Tottenham have been in talks with Estudiantes for some time, but faced competition from Paris Saint-Germain, while Inter Milan and Roma were also interested.

But it seems Tottenham have won the race for Foyth after he received encouragement from Pochettino.

The 19-year-old told El Dia: "It's a club that bets on the young and I think I'm going to have a chance to play.

"I also spoke with Mauricio Pochettino and I liked what he said. It was what helped me decide that Tottenham was the right place to continue my career.

"He told me to go, train and that I would be involved I would play. He also told me what the club was like, what job idea it had."
