Aston Villa manager Alex McLeish completed the signings of Jermaine Jenas and Alan Hutton from Tottenham Hotspur on transfer deadline day.
Midfielder Jenas has linked up at Villa Park on a season-long deal following the arrival of Scott Parker at White Hart Lane.
Scottish international full-back Hutton has made his move to Villa a permanent one after Spurs granted him permission to discuss a transfer with the club.
McLeish said of both players on the club's official website: "Alan is a player whom I know well. Hits the bill in terms of having the right temperament to be an important and influential player for Villa.
"Jermaine is a dynamic midfield player and I feel he will add to the quality of the squad as well. He has also played at a very high level and I'm sure he will be relishing this opportunity."
Hutton has reportedly joined the club for £4m.
