DONE DEAL: Tottenham sign Colombia youth international Juan Pablo Gonzalez Velasco

Tottenham have signed Colombia youth international Juan Pablo Gonzalez Velasco from Brentford.

Sky Sports says Velasco had been on trial at Burnley and was also reportedly of interest to Chelsea, Southampton and Fulham's academies.

The 17-year-old left Brentford's academy when it closed earlier this summer and has joined Tottenham's U18s group.

The winger made his debut for Spurs in a 5-1 win over Aston Villa at Hotspur Way at the weekend, coming on as a second-half substitute.
