Dutch winger Arnaut Danjuma has joined Tottenham on loan from Villarreal until the end of the current campaign.
The 25-year-old, who becomes their first acquisition of the January transfer window after Spurs made a last-minute swoop, was anticipated to join Everton.
Before to La Liga, Danjuma played for Bournemouth from 2019 to 2021, collecting 17 goals in 52 games.
Although he has six caps and two goals to his credit, he was not selected for the Netherlands World Cup squad in 2022.
Danjuma scored 16 goals in all competitions for Villarreal past season, helping the team advance to the Champions League semifinals.
He appeared to have reached an agreement with Everton over the weekend, but Tottenham acted before he could sign the contract.
He joins Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Dejan Kulusevski, Richarlison, and Lucas Moura as more attacking options for Spurs.
With a 1-0 victory at Fulham on Monday, Antonio Conte’s team, currently in fifth place in the Premier League, closed the gap to the top four to three points.
