Tottenham have completed the signing of Paris Saint-Germain right-back Serge Aurier.

Spurs beat off competition from Manchester United for Aurier, who will cost around £23m.

The Ivory Coast international, who has signed a five-year deal and will wear the No.24 shirt, will replace Kyle Walker and provide cover at wing-back for Mauricio Pochettino.

“This is a huge and exciting opportunity at a massive football club and I am determined to prove myself as a professional both on and off the pitch," Aurier said.

"This is a fresh start for me and I will do everything to make the Spurs fanbase, which is huge and diverse, proud of me.

"The fans are the most important people at any club and I am looking forward to showing them and everyone at Spurs the real Serge Aurier.”

Aurier's move was complicated by the need to apply for a UK work visa from the Home Office.

The 24-year-old's application was in doubt after being convicted of assaulting a police officer last year.

After a patient start to the summer, Spurs have now made four signings, with Aurier joined by Juan Foyth, Paulo Gazzaniga and Davinson Sanchez.

Foyth arrives for £8-10m and the 19-year-old Argentinian centre-back provides cover with Pochettino likely to continue with a 3-4-3 system.

Spurs had pursued Foyth for most of the summer after impressive displays for Argentina at under-20 level.

The fee appeared to be a sticking point but a compromise has now been made with the Argentinian club receiving £8-10m.
