Tottenham ended deadline day with a flourish by completing the signing of striker Fernando Llorente from Swansea.
The 32-year-old Spaniard, who was also a reported target for Chelsea, has sealed a move to north London after agreeing a two-year contract.
"I can only say I come here to help Tottenham try to win titles," Llorente told the club website. (www.tottenhamhotspur.com)
“I think they are working really well in the last few years, I like Mauricio Pochettino, his mentality, his thoughts about Tottenham and I think the project and the philosophy of this club is amazing."
Spurs had earlier landed £23million Ivorian defender Serge Aurier from Paris St Germain on a five-year deal.
Llorente is Mauricio Pochettino's fifth signing of the summer following Juan Foyth, Davinson Sanchez and Paulo Gazzaniga to the club.
The move was completed late on deadline day after Wilfried Bony completed his return to Swansea from Manchester City.
