Following Tottenham’s confirmation of Xavi’s transfer, the Dutchman has now sat down with the club’s media team to conduct his first interview in a Spurs shirt.Speaking to the club’s official channels, Simons said: “I’m really happy and can’t wait to get going. I’ve been dreaming of this for a long time.“It’s a great Club and when I met the Head Coach I knew straight away that this was the right place for me. I will bring flair to the team, but also hard work and discipline. I want to do everything I can to win, for the team and also for the fans.”Spurs transfer plans beyond SimonsTottenham’s push for reinforcements is not expected to end with Simons, with the club also being linked with wingers and centre-backs over the past fortnight.The pursuit of Savinho ended in disappointment for Tottenham, with Manchester City making clear earlier this week that they have no intention of selling the 21-year-old winger.Attention has now turned elsewhere, and Monaco’s Maghnes Aklilouche has emerged as another target for Tottenham, with reports claiming that Spurs could land him for as little as £47.5 million (€55 million).READ MORE: Huge blow for Mikey Moore and Tottenham as Rangers fall to embarassing defeatThe post Xavi Simons first words as a Tottenham Hotspur player will excite fans appeared first on Spurs Web.
