Tottenham signing Saha tribute to Everton boss Moyes

New Tottenham signing Louis Saha has paid tribute to his former Everton boss David Moyes.

Saha scored 35 goals in 115 appearances for Everton, and has been the Club's main striker since joining from Manchester United in September 2008.

That outcome probably exceeded expectation with his move following an injury-ravaged spell at Old Trafford, and Saha says the transfer proved a turning point for him.

He told evertontv: "I have to say thank you to Everton and particularly David Moyes because they helped me when I really needed it and I will never forget that.

"Leaving a great club like Everton is always a bit sad, but things come to an end, and I also want to say thanks to the supporters as there have been good times and bad times but I have always felt supported and loved.

"Goodison is a special stadium and you can feel the spirit of so many great sportsmen when you go on the pitch. It has been an honour and a privilege as a football player to play there."
