Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the signing of Brazil midfielder Paulinho.
The 24-year-old passed a medical at White Hart Lane earlier this week, having arrived fresh from Brazil’s Confederations Cup triumph.
Paulinho makes the move from Brazilian side Corinthians, with Spurs having paid €20m to sign him, the amount of the player’s release clause.
And Paulinho could not be happier having arrived at White Hart Lane.
