Nelsen: I'm joining Tottenham to win trophies

Ryan Nelsen admits he's joining Tottenham to win trophies.

The Kiwi has left Blackburn Rovers and hopes to sign for Spurs today.

"Medals, trophies are things you strive for. Blackburn got to five semis and never made a final, so it's very exciting," Nelsen told New Zealand's 3News.
