Erik Lamela confident settling quickly at Tottenham

Erik Lamela is convinced he will thrive in England at Tottenham.

The former AS Roma winger told Spurs TV he was relishing the challenge of competing in the Premier League and adapting to the forward-thinking nature of England's top flight.

"I'm really happy to be here, it's a great move for me and I'm really looking forward to doing my best for the team in every game," the midfielder said.

"I'm hoping to integrate myself really quickly. I've only had one training session, I've met all the lads for the first time today but they seem really nice guys and I think it will be a good group of players for this season.

"I like the English style of football it's very offensive and attacking and that's what I want to play in and I've got to adapt myself to playing in the Premier League as quickly as I can."
