Tottenham fans are delighted as Bryan Gil's move from La Liga side Sevilla has been confirmed with long-serving winger Erik Lamela going the other way as part of the deal.
Gil, 20, has signed a long-term contract in N17 until 2026.
The deal is still subject to international clearance, but if all is fine then there will be no problem at all with this transfer.
Gil made his European football bow as Sevilla won the Europa League in 2019/20. He featured four times in the competition and scored against Qarabag before joining Leganes on loan for the rest of the season, scoring in a 2-2 draw against Real Madrid in July, 2020.
The 20-year-old is currently competing for Spain at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, where he has played in the U23s' draw against Egypt and the most recent 1-0 victory over Australia.
A highly-rated prospect in Spain, it's fair to see the Gil transfer has Tottenham fans talking.
Here are how a select number of Spurs fans reacted to the news on Twitter.
@_10kane said: 'BEST WINGER IN LONDON.'
@Troyspur reckons: 'This kid can play! Watched him the other night at the Olympics. Came off the bench and was Spain’s clear man of the match. Wow.'
@SamRamm said: 'Welcome Gil. Look forward to watching you play.'
@TracyDawn17 tweeted: 'Welcome! It's going to be bumpy but its one hell of a ride at Tottenham.
'Fingers crossed for a great season. I'm already looking forward to it.'
@RDeanWriter put: 'Great bit of work, that. Keep it going Paratici and co.'
Despite the obvious jubilation at this exciting acquisition, there were plenty of thanks for long-serving forward Erik Lamela, who is leaving in the other direction for Spain.
@Kaloooooyskiiii put: 'Coco will always be in my heart. Gracias coco.'
@ggul_spurs tweeted: 'He has been at Tottenham for about eight years. He deserves some respect.'
@xoxoclassyhaha remembers Lamela for his stunning goal at the Emirates Stadium: 'Bye bye rabona boy and all the best at Sevilla.'
@jilllewis33 said: 'Dear Coco, I'm going to miss you at WHL. You got what Spurs means and gave us some unforgettable magic moments. I wish you all the best in the lovely city of Seville. You'll always be Spurs tho', forever in my heart.'
It's out with the old, and in with the new at Tottenham Hotspur as the Nuno Espirito Santo revolution is starting to take real shape already with the signing of the young Spaniard.
