Lucas Moura has recalled first joining Tottenham from PSG.

The midfielder says he appreciates how his teammates welcomed him.

He told SpursPlay: "I only wanted it to be a permanent transfer and not a loan. I had been in Paris for 5 years and I felt the cycle was over. I wanted to go somewhere else. I knew that with dedication and hard work, it was going to be fine. Without a doubt, I was super motivated to give a new direction to my career.

"When I arrived (at Tottenham), Moussa Sissoko helped me enormously. Serge Aurier too, I knew him from PSG. Eric Dier also spoke to me in Portuguese. And then there were the Brazilians, Carlos Vinicius and then Emerson arrived. It's normal to be with Brazilians, we can understand each other. But I spend time with everyone."
