Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg sent Sergio Reguilon a long WhatsApp message when he first joined Tottenham Hotspur that made a big impression on the the Spanish left-back.
Both players arrived at Spurs ahead of this current season and have quickly become big personalities within Jose Mourinho's squad and firm fan favourites with their impressive performances on the pitch.
Midfielder Hojbjerg was signed from Southampton in August with Reguilon joining from Real Madrid a month later.
The Spain international revealed that when he arrived it was the Dane, despite only being new to the team himself, who sent him a long welcome message.
"One thing that nobody knows is Pierre, when I didn't know anything about Tottenham, he sent me a message in WhatsApp," Reguilon told presenter Ben Haines on Spurs' N17 matchday online show.
"He said 'Hi I'm Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, I hope you do well and we need you. I want you to do well for the team'.
"I was like 'What?, What?' and now every time I see him I say 'Pierre, you remember it' and he says 'yes, yes'."
The defender added: "It was a big message (stretches his thumb and forefinger far apart).
"He spoke about the training centre, the team-mates, about the coach, about all [of it]. I was with my father and I said 'look Dad!'."
The message clearly left a mark on Reguilon, who acknowledged how crucial having support is when you arrive in a different country.
He said: "When you are arrive to a new stadium and a new country, it's important to have people and players that help you and Pierre does that."
