Tottenham new boy Soldado sets 20-goal target

Roberto Soldado is hoping to score in excess of 20 goals in his first season with Tottenham.

The 28-year old was signed for a club record £26milliom from Valencia earlier this summer and is already planning to continue the brilliant scoring form he enjoyed in Spain to the Premier League.

"To give an exact figure is difficult but my aim is to score more than 20 goals, which I consider a good number," Soldado, who netted 30 times for Los Che last season, told Reuters Television.

"It will be tough but, with hard work and the support of my team-mates, then it is possible. The Premier League is more intense than La Liga and the physical side of things harder than in Spain.

"Because of that I want to show my commitment to fight for this jersey in the best manner possible."
