Ossie Ardiles: Roberto Soldado "reminds me of Luis Suarez"

Tottenham Hotspur legend Ossie Ardiles believes that Roberto Soldado is a similar player to Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.

The Spain international joined Spurs for £26m from Valencia this summer and netted on his Premier League debut against Crystal Palace in his side's 1-0 win.

Ardiles told The Mirror: "He reminds me of Luis Suarez. He is dangerous in the box and always looks likely to score.

"These are exciting times and we are definite ­contenders for a top-four ­finish."

Tottenham face off against Swansea City in the Premier League later today.
