Robbie Keane has welcomed new Tottenham signing Peter Crouch.

Despite the competition Crouch brings to Keane, the Irishman says: "I am looking forward to playing with him.

"He is a tremendous player and he is a good addition to a good squad that we already have.

"As a striker it is always good to be kept on your toes and we now have four good strikers and it is good to have that competition as it now means we all have to perform otherwise someone else is going to come in.

"It is important to have that competition and it will only help us to do well."
