Tottenham confirm loan signing of Arnaut Danjuma

Tottenham Hotspur have officially confirmed the loan signing of wide player Arnaut Danjuma until the end of the season from Villarreal.

The 25-year-old was widely expected to join Everton earlier in the month but Tottenham swooped in to highjack the deal in recent days.

A club statement on the signing reads: “We are delighted to announce the signing of Arnaut Danjuma on loan from Villarreal until the end of the 2022/23 season, subject to international clearance.

“Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Arnaut began his career as a youngster in the Netherlands with TOP Oss and PSV before joining NEC Nijmegen in 2016.

“After scoring 14 goals in 46 senior appearances over two seasons for NEC, he joined Belgian side Club Brugge ahead of the 2018/19 campaign, swiftly helping them lift the Belgian Super Cup and going on to score six goals in 25 games for them, including two appearances in the UEFA Champions League.”
