Lucas Moura raising baby son to be Tottenham fan with 'Come On You Spurs' chant during lockdown

Champions League hero Lucas Moura has again cemented his place in the hearts of Tottenham fans by teaching his child to sing 'Come On You Spurs'.

The 27-year-old - regardless of any subsequent form - will forever go down in Tottenham folklore as the man who sent them to the Champions League final.

With Tottenham down and out, trailing Ajax 2-0 at half-time, 3-0 on aggregate, Moura produced one of the most sensational Champions League hat-tricks of all time to single-handedly send them to the final.

While Tottenham eventually fell to Liverpool, Moura's heroics go down as perhaps the greatest individual performance in the club's history.

Despite the coronavirus pandemic ensuring the Premier League's indefinite suspension, Moura's mind is still clearly very much on Tottenham.

Released on his Instagram account, Moura showed himself teaching his son how to sing Tottenham's infamous chant.

One fan in response to the video compared the Brazilian to club legend Rafael Van Der Vaart, saying: "He gets us, like VdV in that way."

Speaking to Tottenham's official website, Moura also revealed how much he's missing football.

“I miss everything,” said Moura. “I miss playing football and I miss my team-mates. I miss the training ground and I miss our routine of going to the training centre, to play and have a good time with each other.

"I miss everything.”
