Ex-Spurs, Arsenal midfielder Ricketts playing in Ecuador

Former Tottenham and Arsenal midfielder Rohan Ricketts is now playing in Ecuador for Deportivo Quevedo.

Ricketts, once of Toronto FC, made the move last month.

He told the Daily Mail: "Playing in South America has always been a dream of mine so when my agent told me about this opportunity, I jumped at the chance.

"I have been here for a month now and am settling in well. My team mates have been very welcoming and I have joined in pre-season which is refreshing after my last couple of moves where I have joined mid way through and struggled to get to the same fitness level."
