Sevilla signing Lamela posts Spurs farewell

Tottenham Hotspur have wished Erik Lamela all the best in the future.

Lamela has joined Sevilla in a deal which saw Bryan Gil move in the opposite direction.

The Argentine spent eight years with Spurs, and the club have bid him farewell.

"Going the other way to Spain, Erik joined us from AS Roma in August 2013. Over the next eight seasons, the all-action attacking midfielder made 257 appearances in all competitions, helping us reach three cup finals and finish second and third twice in the Premier League.

"Now 29, Erik took his tally of caps for Argentina to 25 during his time here. A club man through and through, we wish Erik all the best for the future."
