Erik Lamela 'happy' at Tottenham Hotspur

Erik Lamela insists that he has no intention of leaving the Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Erik Lamela has insisted that he has no intention of leaving the club.

The Argentine was linked with a move elsewhere over the summer, but he is adamant that he is now settled at White Hart Lane.

"Ever since I got here, people have spoken about me leaving," Lamela told the Evening Standard. "They said it the first year, the second year and now in the third.

"But I didn't speak because there was nothing to say. My mind has always been here at Tottenham. Would I have moved to Marseille, Inter, back to Roma? No - I have always wanted to stay here and I have always made that clear.

"It's something I've said to my teammates, to the club, to everyone. I feel good here, I like it. I am very happy. I feel I've adapted and my teammates make me feel at home."

Lamela is Spurs' record signing, having cost the club £30m when they recruited him from Roma.
