Done Deal!! Tottenham Complete Signing Of Matt Doherty
Tottenham have completed the signing of defender Matt Doherty from Wolves on a four-year deal.
Spurs were in the market for a new right-back this summer and Jose Mourinho was keen on the experienced Republic of Ireland international.
The 28-year-old made 50 appearances for Wolves last season and has enhanced his reputation as both a reliable defender and significant threat going forward, scoring seven times in all competitions.
“I’m very proud to be joining such a big club. The best stadium in the world, probably the best training ground in the world from what I’ve seen,” Doherty told Spurs TV.
“The first game of the season is two weeks away so I can’t wait to get going. When I put the shirt on, it’s all go for me.
“I can play in a back three, the wing-back, in the midfield, I can play in a flat four at the back, there are many things I can do and I’ll give everything I can for this club.
“My time at Wolves has been fantastic, I haven’t got a bad word to say about the whole club at all. But now I feel like coming here is going to take my game and career to the next level. With Tottenham now, I’m taking a big step forward.”
